LDN is available by prescription only and custom made for each individual patient at Flourish Pharmacy. The Key to success in using LDN is an understanding that optimal dosing is ultimately patient-specific and is not dependent on a set protocol.
Typical starting doses range from 0.5mg to 1.5mg but dosing strategies can vary tremendously. Some patients find success very quickly, while others need to try a variety of dosing adjustments, which may take up to several months to achieve success. Therefore, it is critical to work with a provider and a compounding pharmacy knowledgeable in strategies that can help ensure success with LDN.
