LDN & CBD

Can Low-Dose Naltrexone (LDN)

and CBD oil be taken together?  

Medical Professionals have spoken about the benefits of prescribing both LDN and CBD oil to their patients. They say that the

combination is synergistic and that they complement each other. They see significant improvements in their patients, especially in cases involving pain and inflammation. According to a physician, it’s like giving “double dose of anti-inflammatory help”.

There hasn’t been any documented unfavorable instance in using them concurrently. So, the simple answer is yes, they can be taken together because they offer greater benefits than when used alone.

CBD and LDN work very well together in the treatment of cancer, autoimmune diseases and pain conditions.

LDN and CBD Testimonials from Medical Professionals

Craig Hauser, MD

“Organic CBD with LDN together give patients with chronic pain, anxiety, and sleep issues a double dose of anti-inflammatory help. In all my years as an M.D. and Integrative Medicine physician at Hauser Health, I believe there is no Magic Pill.  But I think these 2 are a pretty amazing combination.”

Tom Schnorr, RPh

“I have been personally using LDN at 3mg for the last 9 years for my allergies to the mold here in Austin TX.  I keep them in check with one 3 mg cap at bedtime and rarely ever need to add an antihistamine and when I do I choose a nutritional supplement variety. Usually D-Hist from Orthomolecular. About 2 yrs ago I added in CBD at 25mg to 50mg twice a day and by combining the two (LND and CBD) I have almost forgotten I have any reaction to mold or cedar in central Texas”.

“For fibromyalgia, I have found the combination of CBD and LDN to be more effective for pain reduction than either treatment alone. CBD also eases the anxiety that can occur as a side effect of LDN”.

F. Ramzi Asfour, MD

“For many of my patients, LDN has been extremely helpful in their recovery. For some, the addition of CBD to the LDN has led to further significant improvement”.

Tamyrs Comeaux, MD

“I have had LDN and CBD compounded into a vaginal preparation.  People loved it!  It was excellent for vaginal discomfort and dryness.

I have used LDN and CBD simultaneously, but in separate preparations, for anxiety.  It is extremely effective.  Also, CBD seems to help the insomnia side effect that people often observe with LDN.

They work extremely well together and I have not observed an instance where the combination was unfavourable”.
