My doctor wants me to start using this and I would just like to hear some feedback from others who have been on this for awhile. Did it make a noticeable difference?

Even the copay is expensive on top of all my other meds/supps that are very expensive and just want to make sure it's worth it. Thanks!

it should be really cheap if you order it directly- mine is about $30/month out of pocket from McGuff Compounding PHarmacy (doctor calls in a prescription to them, and I get them to mail the meds to me).

there were a LOT of recent threads about this at the beginning of the summer- you might expeirence insomnia for the first couple of weeks, some doctors have prescribed it to be taken in the morning instead, which may help, lots of uncertainty about which dosage is optimal so you may want to start with lower doses.

Personally, it's really helped me control candida, and I'm pretty certain that this med is what does so for me. I might be having worse herxes with new antibiotics than I used to, and it might be related to being on LDN, though I'm not sure of that of course.

Grandmother,

Thanks so much for the link. I am starting LDN soon...I just have to investigate which pharmacy is best at compounding it.
