Guest guest Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Yes, Dr. Zagon, who is a PhD not an MD, says he does not recommend the cream because he hasn't studied the pharmacokinetics of it, that is how long will the receptors be blockaded using the cream as a vehicle. But Dr. McCandless has used it extensively and successfully, and recommends it. You do not have to stop LDN because you are on steroids - that is a myth. Ask Dr. Zagonif you need more evidence. http://www.fred.psu.edu/ds/retrieve/fred/investigator/isz1Jackie--- On Thu, 6/3/10, paul eftis <cyndi@...> wrote:From: paul eftis <cyndi@...>Subject: [low dose naltrexone] ldn cream/insommnialow dose naltrexone Date: Thursday, June 3, 2010, 11:25 AM I don't really know if I replied to the right place for this. fyi..this radio interview is very informative and the doctor does not recommend using cream.

Guest guest Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 According to one of the pharmacists at Skip's (sorry, I forget her name, I talked to her about this a month or so ago), while you do not have to stop LDN because of being on steroids, steroids do interfere with the effectiveness of LDN. So you might be wasting money and medication by taking LDN while on steroids - depending on how strong the steroids are. ~EileenOn Jun 3, 2010, at 12:27 PM, carcinoidwarrior wrote: Yes, Dr. Zagon, who is a PhD not an MD, says he does not recommend the cream because he hasn't studied the pharmacokinetics of it, that is how long will the receptors be blockaded using the cream as a vehicle.

Guest guest Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 You have to know that this one is a researcher.not too much experience with patients.dr mccandless treats many and says that the cream is just as good and fors ome better,especially with gut problems. Most treating doctors se ebetter results at night Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
