PWP have a high rate of methane in the colon in addition to SIBO.

Naltrexone is used for this.

And, it’s used for autoimmunity as it’s a potent anti inflammatory

Is anyone on here using it? Please share your experience if you are.

i’ve started taking this. My doctor put me on 1.5 mg and I’m now up to 3.0 mg. She’s gonna have me go to 4.5 mg in two months. That’s max dose for it to be considered low. I don’t see any harm in taking it so far. I’m just sleeping better. My dreams are a little bit more vivid but nothing bad. I look forward to going to sleep. I’m not on meds yet for PD. I’m also taking B1 and that’s helping as well. Less fatigue and more energy. I’m still trying to work out my sweet spot with B1.

LDN is supposed to help autoimmune issues and “heal your body“. Some physicians think PD is an auto immune disease. I’m not quite sure, but we’re trying to hit it at every angle possible. my doctors a rockstar. If ldn doesn’t help, I’ll stop after a year. Happy to keep you posted on my progress. I’m 50 years old newly diagnosed.

We are considering this for my husband's chronic pain. I had read biggest side effect is vivid dreams.

vivid dreams are a little Bizzarre but nothing scary. I have never had a nightmare since taking LDN. However, my dreams are definitely more interesting, I remember them more and if I wake up in the middle of night, I fall back to sleep and return back to the same dream. It’s a little weird, but I look forward to it believe it or not. I’ve been sleeping so much better.
