I have searched through the LDN site but couldn't find anything on it and I'm not familiar with how Tysabri works(as opposed to the CRABs). I always suggest anyone interested in LDN to join this group and post questions as I have learned a lot monitoring for several months, (and posting occasionally) but I haven't seen that question come up.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2007 Report Share Posted August 29, 2007 I emailed Dr Skip at Skip's Pharmacy about the LDN and Tysabri being taken together and he said, No one knows for sure, but my opinion is that its an immunmodulating drug, so I counsel No. Secondly with all of the problems with tysabri. I would say no just to be on the safe side.

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2008 Report Share Posted April 13, 2008  My understanding is that it is best not to take these two together. Personally I would not. Aletha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
