LDN for Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia is a chronic musculoskeletal pain condition, causing brain fog, fatigue and sleeping issues.

Studies done at Stanford University found that pain and fatigue caused by fibromyalgia can be effectively treated with 4.5mg of naltrexone daily.

The mechanism of action appears to be through the reduction of cytokine inflammation in the brain which sensitizes pain-causing tissues.

Naltrexone dosing for fibromyalgia is commonly split up to 3 times per day for those with more fatigue.
