Guest guest Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 > > Okay, I have moved up to 4.5 about two weeks now. The only really bad thing that has been going on is heartburn and my tummy has been upset. Is this just a coincidence or is it the LDN? I just wonder if it is something I must hold on to and ride out. Any suggestions? ======= What is the filler in your capsules? May be your filler causing problems.

Guest guest Posted August 2, 2006 Report Share Posted August 2, 2006 Check out the filler that is being used. Calcium Carbonate is an antacid, but there is significant acid rebound from it. skip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 ---There is so little filler in the capsel, how could it have any effect on anybody? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 I have posted this before, so I am sorry if you have already heard my story. I had a miserable time because of the filler avicil in my first LDN prescription. I was in real agony for several days with the worst stomach pains..I thought I had an ulcer. When I switched to Lactose it stopped immediately and in 3 months hasn't come back. Please don't give up on LDN without trying the prescription with a different filler.

I'm allergic to avicel so when that was used in my capsules I had a headache, nausea and near vomiting and many who are allergic to it had the same reaction I did. Once I switched back to lactose of which I can tolerate all those sick feelings went away. I started out on lactose and did great but wanted to try Avicel to see if I could get my script from Skip(avicel is all he uses), unfortunately I could not tolerate the avicel.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2006 Report Share Posted August 3, 2006 Look at it this way. Think about the effect that the actual DRUG has on you, and it's only 3-4.5 mg. There is much more filler than naltrexone.> >> > ---There is so little filler in the capsel, how could it have any > > effect on anybody?> >> ======> > Believe me IT DOES, LOL.

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 Your comment about so little filler in the capsule is not correct. 3.0 or 4.5mg naltrexone is only a couple of grains so in actual fact almost all of the contents of the capsule is filler. customthomas wrote: >---There is so little filler in the capsel, how could it have any >effect on anybody? > > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 Earlier post on fillers [low dose naltrexone] Re: LDN and upset stomach?~ Good for you Joyce! Just a little fine tuning goes a long way right? Now just remember when you see someone post "I have an upset stomach..." you'll know exactly what to suggest!!!
