Ask CLYR: To get LDN online, you complete a health screening, a licensed provider reviews it, and if appropriate a compounding pharmacy prepares and ships the capsules. At CLYR, LDN 4.5 mg is $119 for 30 capsules or $169 for 90 capsules, billed once, and ships to most states and Puerto Rico.

Low-dose naltrexone (LDN) is a compounded capsule, not FDA-approved at this dose, and prescribed off-label. That means you cannot buy it over the counter, and a regular pharmacy will not have it on the shelf. You need a licensed provider to prescribe it and a licensed compounding pharmacy to make it. Telehealth has made both steps simpler. This guide walks through how it works at CLYR and what to check in any service you consider. If you are new to LDN, start with what low-dose naltrexone is.

The short answer

You complete an online health screening. A licensed provider reviews it, including every medicine you take. If the provider decides LDN is appropriate, a licensed U.S. compounding pharmacy prepares 4.5 mg capsules and ships them to you. CLYR ships to most states and Puerto Rico. When you are ready, you can start your LDN screening.

Step by step at CLYR

  1. Health screening. You answer questions about your health history, conditions and current medicines. Some medicines and conditions rule LDN out, so those are checked first. The cautions are explained in LDN side effects and who should not take it.
  2. Provider review. A licensed provider reviews your answers independently. If something needs clarifying, the provider contacts you. The provider decides whether LDN is appropriate for you. Not everyone qualifies.
  3. Compounding. If LDN is prescribed, a state-licensed 503A compounding pharmacy prepares 4.5 mg capsules to the prescription. Your provider writes the directions, typically one capsule nightly or as your provider directs.
  4. Shipping. The pharmacy ships the capsules in discreet packaging to your address in a state CLYR serves.
  5. Ongoing contact. You can message your provider through the patient portal with questions or side effects, and reorder when your provider says it is appropriate.

Important safety information

Compounded low-dose naltrexone is a prescription capsule dispensed only after a licensed provider independently reviews your intake and determines it is appropriate for you. Do not take naltrexone if you take any opioid medicine or have taken one in the last 14 days, including tramadol, codeine, methadone or buprenorphine, because naltrexone blocks them and can cause sudden withdrawal; do not take it if you currently take or need opioid medicines, have liver disease, hepatitis or abnormal liver tests, or are allergic to naltrexone. Tell your provider about kidney disease, pregnancy, breastfeeding or plans for pregnancy, and about every medication and supplement you take. Side effects may include vivid dreams, trouble sleeping, headache, nausea, dizziness or anxiety. Carry a note that you take naltrexone, because opioid pain medicines may not work normally while it is in your system. Compounded medications are made by a licensed U.S. 503A pharmacy to a provider's prescription; they are not FDA-approved and have not been reviewed by the FDA for safety or effectiveness. Individual results vary. Not everyone qualifies. This page is informational and is not medical advice. Call 911 in an emergency.
