Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) is increasingly used by clinicians for management of challenging medical conditions such as chronic pain or autoimmune disorders.
Naltrexone is classified as an opioid antagonist. Naltrexone blocks opiate drugs from binding to the opioid receptors, which can result in increased endorphin and enkephalin release. This causes a biological response that results in reduced signaling and release of inflammatory substances, nerve cell inflammation and autoimmune mediators. LDN has been studied across a wide variety of autoimmune conditions and cancer diagnosis.
The Medicine Center Pharmacy has hydroxychloroquine in stock to help patients who may be struggling in Ohio to find commonly prescribed therapies for rheumatoid arthritis and lupus. If you have questions about your medication therapy reach out to our pharmacists for a private consultation.
