I have a couple friends who are challenged with Crohns and one is not open to try LDN and I just sent the other friend info on LDN and Crohns.
I'ts used by many MS patients and with positive returns.
I tried it before hip replacement in 2010, as I would try just about anything to avoid that surgery. It did NOT work for the issue I had, bone spurs on a arthritic groin.
This is an RX medicine in case others do not know that.
It doesn't look like the study results were very good.

Did you read this one? I have no idea about LDN or Chrohn's, but the info you posted doesn't speak highly of it, but says more studies are needed.
Why post this, if there are ones that support what you are saying more?

How odd. I've never had a problem with a doctor prescribing a lower cost drug if asked.
What is the price difference between this drug that shows little effectiveness, and the standard treatment for Crohn's?

Mercola's point is, he is not a pharma drug person but in the case of LDN he is in favor of it and it probably wouldn't matter what the cost is...but it is very inexpensive. I take the older drug atenolol and my doc put me on that first way back. It was cheap cheap, but my last refill I was a bit shell shocked at the increase in the prices of my few meds.
When I gave LDN a 6 month chance, I even made up my own solution from a 25mg naltrexone tablet my MD gave me a script for. I was so into it and got a lot of support from the LDN forum members...I was so desperate NOT to do a hip surgery, but the drug did not do it for me.
ANYTHING that is published by Mercola should be considered nonsense until proven otherwise
The man is a quack pure and simple his only concern is his own bottom line profit margin...

Quack and nonsense are biggies in your vocabulary. Makes me think about my sister and with MS and how she would tell me about this new drug and that new drug and the $25K price tags, but she and husband came up with money to try them and she would not give the LDN a chance as many take it who struggle with MS...she's gone in spite of all those high priced NEW drugs. Of course, those high priced MS docs didn't even murmur LDN to her. Talk about the sins of medicine. Not Fair, She loved Life.
