It's sold in pharmacies by prescription. Opioid addicts will take a daily pill to block opiate receptors. It keeps people from responding to opioids for a few days.
I don't get the logic of LDN. All naltrexone does is preferentially block opiate receptors so opiates won't work at all. I took it for a year to break an opioid addiction. It had no psychoactive effects at all.
