What dosage and frequency are usually prescribed?
The usual adult dosage of LDN for the treatment of MS is 1.75-4.5mg taken orally once daily at bedtime. Because of the natural rhythms of the body’s hormone production, LDN is best taken between 9pm and 2am. It is generally recommended that the patient begin on 3.0mg per day, and adjust the dosage if necessary. Prescribing 1.5mg capsules allows easy adjustment of dosage. (For example, the patient can take either 2 capsules for 3mg, or 3 capsules for a 4.5mg dose.
