Symptoms can include:

  • profound fatigue
  • post-exertional malaise
  • unrefreshing sleep
  • cognitive problems

There is currently no single medicine that cures ME/CFS

What about LDN?

Low Dose Naltrexone has attracted particular interest among patients, clinicians and researchers.

The is some evidence in ME/CFS, including a study involving 218 patients in which around 70% reported some symptom improvement. However, retrospective patient-reported data is not equivalent to evidence from a large randomised controlled trial, so it should be interpreted cautiously.

At RemiVida, LDN may therefore be considered following individual clinical assessment, rather than presented as an established ME/CFS treatment.
