What is Low Dose Naltrexone?

Low Dose Naltrexone refers to using naltrexone — a medication FDA-approved at higher doses for alcohol and opioid use disorder — at a much smaller dose for off-label purposes, most commonly chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia and certain autoimmune or inflammatory conditions. The evidence for these off-label uses is still developing, and response varies by person. It's typically taken once daily, usually at night.

Immune-modulating mechanism

At low doses, believed to briefly block opioid receptors, triggering a rebound increase in the body's own endorphins and modulating inflammation.

Distinct from standard-dose use

An off-label use at a fraction of the dose used for opioid addiction treatment, with a different mechanism and side-effect profile.

Typically taken at night

Usually dosed once daily at bedtime, since the temporary receptor blockade is best tolerated during sleep.
