I took LDN for 5 months. No side effects. The only side effect I found mentioned in medical literature was vivid dreams. In that case, take during the day other than the recommended take before bed. I've also switched between various NDT brands & haven't had any problems when changing.
My doctor who prescribed LDN is a functional medicine doctor. I'm a T1 diabetic & was having severe hypoglycemic episodes. T1 diabetics can't self-regulate low blood sugar like normal people. The doctor thought LDN might be responsible for the hypoglycemia, though this hadn't happened with other diabetic patients.
My husband has gone between naturethroid and armour depending on the availability of each. He does much better on naturethroid...feels better and numbers are better. He also takes LDN at 3.5 mg nightly. He has high antibodies and after taking LDN compounded for 8 months his antibodies have stopped increasing. They haven't gone down yet, but the fact they have stopped increasing is a good sign. He hasn't had any side effects. I would question taking it during the day. My understanding after reading up on it, is the best results have something to do with its activity during sleep. It is only available here ( US ) in a compounded form and luckily we have a compounding pharmacy a couple miles from our home.
