I,m sorry to say they will not prescribe and i believe this is due to their complete lack of understanding of the drug or their ability to reasearch new drugs. (Just to Lazy) I suffer from Asthma, Psoriasis, Vetiligo and Allergic Rinitus. My usual DR often says I have a bad immune system ,however he doesn,t seem to be able to see benifets of LDN. Can you recommend any Dr in N.Ireland or Scotland who would prescribe. Dr TOM i have been aware of LDN for some time, however i

Does this apply to unopened flasks? I am only able to purchase standard liquid naltrexone at 50mg/20ml.I will be taking out a tiny amount with syringe that corresponds to 3.5mg. Is this just as effective and should I keep all the flasks in refrigerated or just the one I've opened up. Thank you in advance. Dear Dr. Tom,

Dagmar,

People in northern latitudes suffer much more from MS than people closer to the equator. Scotland has one of the highest rates of MS in the world. One explanation is low levels of vitamin D, because of lack of sun exposure.

If this fails do you know of any GP's who prescribe LND in Surrey, if not I would like to see you in Glasgow. I am really keen to get involved with getting the message across on LDN not sure how though? Many thanks Dear Dr Tom

Guess what, I am not excited, as my MS is around longer than these crummy, expensive drugs. I would like to try the LDN Drug, and since I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, I was wondering how to go about getting the drug prescribed and made. I look forward to being your new advocate in Edmonton, one of the cities hit the hardest by MS throughout the world. Dear Dr. Tom,
