In this radio interview, pharmacist Dr. Megan Kilkeary shared insights about her extensive experience in compounding, particularly with low-dose naltrexone (LDN). With nearly 20 years of experience in pharmacy, Dr. Kilary emphasized the importance of high-quality compounding, noting that her pharmacy offers LDN in various forms, including tablets, liquids, topical creams, and sublingual options. The most popular dosage is 4.5 mg tablets, which are designed for easy titration. She also highlighted the pharmacy's commitment to potency testing, ensuring that patients receive consistent dosages.For patients interested in microdosing, especially those looking to taper off opioid therapy or manage addiction issues, a liquid form of LDN is available. Dr. Kilkeary mentioned the topical application of LDN, which shows promise for skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema but recommended oral forms for systemic effects. The conversation also touched upon the benefits of sublingual administration, which bypasses first-pass metabolism in the liver, potentially increasing medication availability. Overall, Dr. Kilkeary's focus is on providing patients with effective, high-quality compounded LDN to address various health conditions.Strive Pharmacy are flipping the script with personal medicine the human element is their crux and catalyst driving all that they do whether interacting with patients providers or practices they are more than a compounding pharmacy they're on a mission to positively disrupt health care as we know it.

Today, I'd like to welcome our guest, Yolanda, from the United States. She takes LDN for rheumatoid arthritis and Hashimoto. Thank you for having me. I had surgery on my foot, thinking it was tendinitis, but it turned out to be rheumatoid arthritis. Soon after, I was diagnosed with Hashimoto. I spent a year researching to find the root cause of my problem, as my mom also has RA. I didn't want to end up like her, unable to use my hands.I spent a year researching and found that LDN and changes in diet helped with my symptoms. While titrating up to 4.5, I experienced intense detox symptoms, including severe burning pain in my arms during a mission trip to Guatemala.After joining Facebook groups, I realized some people took higher doses. A year ago, my inflammation disappeared, and my rheumatologist was amazed. She eventually discharged me, acknowledging that LDN and a clean diet had helped me tremendously.I found LDN to be a game changer for me. It's helped with my rheumatoid arthritis and Hashimoto's. I'm now at 5.0 mg and feeling comfortable. My antibodies are at nine, which is considered in remission, but my doctor doesn't fully agree. I'm also focusing on getting my hypothyroidism into remission next.I convinced my older sister to go see my dad next week. I offered to pay for her initial visit because she's on disability. I also offered to help her get LDN, which I think she needs. She agreed, and I'm glad because all my siblings have rheumatoid arthritis, but none of them want to do anything about it.I always tell my daughters to get checked for autoimmune diseases at their doctor's appointments. My older daughter believes in the benefits of LDN, and my younger daughter is starting to see them too. Before LDN, I was in a lot of pain, especially in my hands, and I had brain fog and extreme fatigue. My hair was dry and thin, and I had gained a lot of weight. After starting LDN, my pain reduced, and I had more clarity of mind.I had some health issues with pain in my hands, but after some time, the inflammation went away and I no longer had to sleep with my hands under my body. I used to take medication to sleep, but I weaned myself off it and now sleep fine. However, I've been having trouble waking up in the middle of the night. Overall, I sleep well and have lost weight relatively easily.I just felt so alive, so different from what I had felt for a long time. I had a little bit of help initially to lose weight, but once the weight started coming off, it just flew off. Since my mom passed away and with the problems I've been having, I gained the weight back, but I know that's just temporary. LDN has been the best thing that has ever happened in my life. I can't imagine living without it. Thank you for having me.

Josie from the United States shared her experience of using LDN for Crohn's disease, asthma, and rheumatoid arthritis. She began using LDN after struggling with Crohn's disease for several years and undergoing multiple surgeries, as traditional medications were not effective in the long term. After researching alternative treatments, she found a specific carbohydrate diet and LDN. Surprisingly, LDN not only alleviated her Crohn's symptoms but also reduced joint pain and respiratory distress from asthma. She started taking LDN in 2007 and initially experienced euphoria and deep sleep as side effects. Before using LDN, Josie suffered from gastrointestinal pain, cramping, diarrhea, fatigue, and frequent secondary infections. She adopted a specific carbohydrate diet, which involved eliminating sugars and starches, and found it to be effective in conjunction with LDN. Although she still experiences some Crohn's symptoms, they are largely under control with the modified diet and LDN. Josie can now eat a wider variety of foods, although she still needs to be cautious with certain grains and sugars.For information on LDN, go to https://linktr.ee/ldnrtOur webinars and training courses can be purchased from https://www.ldnrtevents.com/collections/webinars-and-training-coursesWe have a list of LDN Q&As on our website https://ldnresearchtrust.org/questions-and-answersVisit our website, which is packed with information on Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) for Autoimmune Conditions, Cancers, Chronic Pain, Women's Health and more.https://www.ldnresearchtrust.orgWe have a very active FB Closed Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/LDNRT/

Ep. 96. Low Fiber vs Low Roughage Diets by Erin Kenney, MS, RD, LDN, HCP

I'd like to share the story of our guest, Mark from Australia, who will be talking to us about chronic pain and LDN. Mark's pain journey began about 10 years ago after a snowboarding accident which led to slipped discs. Over the past 2 and a half years, he has undergone multiple treatments including heavy medications and surgeries. However, about 6 months ago, he was introduced to LDN which has significantly improved his quality of life. Before LDN, Mark's pain levels were consistently high, impacting his daily activities and sleep. Now, thanks to LDN, his pain levels have decreased, and he's able to carry out everyday tasks without as much discomfort. LDN has truly been life-changing for Mark, allowing him to regain independence and mobility.For information on LDN, go to https://linktr.ee/ldnrtOur webinars and training courses can be purchased from https://www.ldnrtevents.com/collections/webinars-and-training-coursesWe have a list of LDN Q&As on our website https://ldnresearchtrust.org/questions-and-answersVisit our website, which is packed with information on Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) for Autoimmune Conditions, Cancers, Chronic Pain, Women's Health and more.https://www.ldnresearchtrust.orgWe have a very active FB Closed Grouphttps://www.facebook.com/groups/LDNRT/

This episode dives deep into one of the questions I get asked most often: Should I take Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN)? If you're wondering whether LDN will work for your autoimmune condition, why it's not working for you, or why so many people online swear by it—this is the episode you need to hear. LDN has gained a lot of traction in the autoimmune community, especially on social media and even among some medical professionals. But is the hype supported by science? In this episode, we're cutting through the noise and getting real about what the research actually says. We'll break down: What LDN is and how it works The evidence (and limitations) in conditions like fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's, and scleroderma Why some people feel better—and others don't The difference between symptom relief and disease progression Why we need large, controlled studies before LDN becomes a mainstream autoimmune treatment As a practitioner, it's incredibly important to me that we don't just chase the latest trend. My role is to give you the full picture—the good and the bad—so you can make an informed decision about your health. We're not offering blanket solutions here. We're offering clarity. If you've been curious about LDN, this is the episode that gives you the straight facts—backed by science, explained with heart.

Harms of Reflux Medications, How to Wean off - PPI's, H2 blockers, Antacids by Erin Kenney, MS, RD, LDN, HCP

Dermot from Ireland started experiencing chronic fatigue syndrome symptoms after undergoing cancer treatment in 2018. His health declined significantly after a potential COVID-19 infection in early 2020, leading to ongoing health challenges such as nausea, fatigue, and difficulty breathing. Despite undergoing various tests and consultations, the exact cause of their symptoms remained unclear. After experiencing a brief improvement in 2022, they identified chronic fatigue mixed with irritable bowel syndrome as potential causes of their ongoing health issues and are exploring treatment options including LDN which has helpped enormously.

I'm Kerry from the US, I developed symptoms of lupus and fibromyalgia when I was 15. I struggled with fatigue and missed a lot of school. I was initially diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, but it was later changed to lupus. The treatments I received included gold salts, aspirin therapy, and eventually steroids. The steroids helped, but I experienced severe side effects, such as significant weight gain and swelling. I've been taking ibuprofen and Plaquenil, but they have their own risks and side effects. I also experienced leg pains that seemed unrelated to lupus, leading to a fibromyalgia diagnosis. LDN id deffinately helping me.
