Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN)

The Harpal way

We can provide Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) as an adjunct to your current management by your doctors. Please assume a minimum of 3 months of being on LDN before you start to notice a difference if any, although in the majority of people, this can be much sooner.

Why choose us?

• Our GMC registered doctors are able to assess your individual medical situation and prescribe without any NHS or other referrals. This is particularly important for patients who may still be waiting for a diagnosis but would prefer to be proactive about managing their own health
• Same week bookings are usually available for LDN membership doctor consultations. Call us today to discuss availability
• Our clinic is at the forefront of advances in LDN research and as such, we have a wealth of experience in managing many different types of medical issues and also for LDN for longevity as a preventative measure
• Dr. Harpal Bains, our Medical Director and founder, is dedicated to advancing practitioner education, particularly through her work with the LDN Research Trust. She actively contributes by delivering lectures and presenting case studies, sharing her expertise and insights with fellow practitioners
• You will be working with a doctor that specialises in functional medicine and longevity medicine, as well as a specialised health coach who will guide and support you through your LDN journey. In our experience, providing a prescription alone without robust clinical patient support tends to yield less favourable results overall. Working with a doctor that takes your full case history into account, both initially and longer term as you continue with LDN therapy makes a large difference for our patients.
• We are able to manage complex medical cases, where more than LDN may be required as our doctors are also specialised in functional medicine, hormone optimisation therapy, and longevity medicine. You will have the option to continue on to one of our larger consultation pathways if your doctor advises that it would be useful for you, and if choose to do so. Please note, the cost of the initial LDN consultation will be deducted from the cost of the larger consultation you continue with.
• Our medical team can accommodate face-to-face, video consultations and phone consultations.
• We are able to cater to the whole of the UK, including delivery of medication.

Where possible, we ask for:

• Your primary carer (GP or specialist) is aware and supportive of you being here (not compulsory)
• You have blood results within the past 3 months (not compulsory)
• You bring in other relevant investigations that you have done, e.g. imaging reports etc. (not compulsory)

Whilst this is not strictly necessary, we prefer to work with your main doctors as LDN is still in its infancy.

Whilst this is not strictly necessary, we prefer to work alongside your main doctors. This is because, although naltrexone is a very well established and safe drug, its use in very low doses is considered off-label and so many doctors are not familiar with it. Being able to share your progress with your GP may help educate them and inspire them to guide others better in similar situations.
