Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 While on interferon, I was instructed to use LDN too, till I hear that the combination is incompatible and I informed my neuro who decided to stop LDN. Now I am planning to propose to my Dr. to go to LDN alone. The think that bothers me is that I'm used to consume alcohol at night because it keeps me calm. Do you think that I'll have problems?

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 My boyfriend takes LND together with Copaxone for one week now . At first he had some difficulty sleeping, but this only lasted for 3 nights. He is also used to drink a few beers in the evening and still does. I think the only effect of LDN together with alcohol is that the alcohol does not have the effect you're used to. This is only when you take LDN before you have a beer. The other way around (take it before you go to sleep) does not seem to have any bad side-effects. --- In low dose naltrexone , " Aristidis " <aristalle@y...> wrote: > While on interferon, I was instructed to use LDN too, till I hear that > the combination is incompatible and I informed my neuro who decided to > stop LDN.

Do you think that I'll have problems? ============ ============ My mom and I find that LDN calms us. The alcohol may not have the same effect on you while you are taking LDN. It's okay to drink alcohol while taking LDN as long as you are not an alcoholic, then LDN would put you into withdrawal symptoms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 I would think the LDN as low as we take it wouldn't affect alcohol at all. I drink wine nightly and sometimes lots of it and I have no affects drinking with LDN.

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Rhonda, I too like my merlot at night, to calm the body. This is a real scientific question---do you notice you feel better when having wine at night, then times that you don't???? At the moment I've given up the wined and coffee (how is that for strength!!) while on a strong acidolphilus. I've not been diagnosed with candida, just adjusting my gut. I've done rather well " off " the two of them, but look forward to either the LDN kicking in the calm results or back to the merlot.

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 I feel the same drinking wine as I did before taking LDN. LDN calming, LOL b/c it gives me so much energy I can do anything and everything and go out dancing til 2am and get up next day and do more. I dug two huge holes in dirt hard as concrete in 100 degree humid weather to plant a palm tree and canna lily not to long ago. Couldn't have done that before the liquid LDN energy. And I got the energy part after taking LDN the liquid way where I was taking the crushed way and got other symptom relief but not with the chronic fatigue which was killing me. I still have a bit of numbness but it's not real intense anymore. I still like the wine buzz tho and wine with foods. Not sure I would ever sleep without the wine and started drinking wine 10 years ago when my symptoms started and I couldn't sleep or wake up and not go back to sleep. Took Kava and Valerian back then also or benedryl.

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2005 Report Share Posted July 11, 2005 Yes, sometimes I feel better and sometimes not. I think too that the menstrual cyle affects me with how alcohol makes me feel. Or maybe it's some other body cycle.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 Hi Colin,Yes, it is possible, but definitely not advisable. As a general rule, medications and alcohol do not mix. Besides, alcohol is a neurotoxin.Sincerely,Dudley Delany dudley_delanyFrom: Colin Sent: Wednesday, February 6, 2008 5:28 AM low dose naltrexone Subject: [low dose naltrexone] LDN and Alcohol Is it possible to go out for a few drinks (alcohol) then take LDN before sleeping?

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 I drink a couple glasses of red wine with dinner every night. I hope it's not a problem because I'm not about to give that up. > > Hi Colin, > > Yes, it is possible, but definitely not advisable. As a general rule, medications and alcohol do not mix.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 I use to have, now and then, some glass of wine, and may be some lighter drinks like s in addition. I have Crohns disease and cannot drink beer, my stomach reacts then, but it's ok for me to have red wine and soft drinks. I never drink too much, and I usually take my LDN at normal time, it has happened that I have taken it around 2.00 before bedtime when drinking wine earlier at night, and it has not at all made any trouble for me. But remember, we're different. What I can have, other may be can't. Why not try a little one night? And the decide if this is ok for you?.... I mean.....we are still supposed to have a life, eh? :-) Ingrid [low dose naltrexone] LDN and Alcohol Is it possible to go out for a few drinks (alcohol) then take LDN before sleeping?

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2008 Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 I drink sometimes (3 - 5 times a year) some glass of red wine and some small s, I take my LDN as usual, and feel fine. Sometimes I take LDN later at night when having wine.
