This is not an endorsement of any kind of self medication. But let's face it - it's there as an option. One could always order LDN or minocycline from overseas over the web.

Here's a poll...

I'm confused. Why would anyone want to order LDN from overseas? Why bother?

It's so inexpensive anyway, that it might be cheaper to buy it here!

Not to mention the fact that not all LDN is prepared correctly. If I take LDN, I'll use Skip's Pharmacy, or another of the few with a solid track record of compounding LDN with the right binder, etc.

For example with LDN, not everyone is having success with their neuro or PCP to get it prescribed. There are instructions to make your own, so it's out there as an option.
