Low-dose Naltrexone....aka....LDN
This pharmaceutical drug is definitely getting some attention in the autism community. Today was our boys' first day on this medication and we are praying for amazing results. The drug naltrexone is actually an opioid antagonist and in small doses it also boosts the immune system amongst other positive things. Research says that it could help mood regulation, self injurious behavior, obsessive behavior as well as improve attention to name a few. The boys are both getting 1.5mg in a trans dermal cream that I rub on them sometime between 9pm-midnight.
