How it works
Transiently blocks opioid receptors, triggering a rebound upregulation of endorphins and reducing microglial activation and neuroinflammation. Mechanism at low doses differs from standard naltrexone.
Requires a prescription and a doctor willing to prescribe off-label — not yet widely available for this indication. Must be compounded at low doses. Avoid if taking opioid medications.
Small pilot RCTs in ME/CFS and fibromyalgia show significant fatigue and pain reduction. A 2024 Norwegian RCT showed significant benefit in ME/CFS. Larger trials are ongoing.

“Some improvement but not as dramatic as I hoped. Might need longer to see full benefit. Still continuing.”
