My LDN(from DIckson's) has been reformulated.I am having VERY intense dreams & other symptoms.Wondering if its the LDN.Thinking of reducing slightly.

Maybe you should also put this query on the LDN forum. Search LDN and it will bring up this site.

I haven't been on the HU site for a couple of years.It was extremely static.No comparison with TUK!I'll check it out...

Yes, I noticed not much activity there, but remember LDN users had commented on vivid dreams that tend to go as body got used to dose, and someone had commented about taking LDN on waking seemed to limit this side effect. I had bought some a month ago but wanted to settle thyroid/ supplement dosing before starting anything new, so I can tell which is causing what! T3 hasn’t got rid of pain/exhaustion hoping LDN will.

Only you can decide if the other symptoms you refer to, warrant a dose reduction; but I can say that experiencing intense dreams is a common and short-lived reaction to many med changes, likely to be nothing to worry about and they should abate of their own accord. I had them when increasing my dose of propanolol, and also when reducing another med for instance, and found them quite interesting.

Yes,I think you are right.Dickson's say the new formula has less additives,so its possible it might be a little stronger.I'm sure the dreams will settle down...

I took LDN. Vivid dreams are common, though I didn't have them. I had no side effects. Take your dose early in the day.

Are you taking it just before bed? I’ve been recommended to take LDN at 5pm and I rarely have any vivid dreams. Don’t think it’s from Dickinsons.
