RE: Does anyone want my Naltrexone?

October 21, 2004

Hi (again) Jan,

Have you considered having the compounding done using your tablets or do

you want to try pure naltrexone powder plus known filler instead of

whatever filler is in the Revia?

The reason I ask is that the compounded capsules I got from the woman I

mentioned yesterday were made up by The Green Dispensary from her husband's

Revia tablets and were only something like $32.50 for 100 x 3 mg capsules,

whereas my own have cost me $179 (Australian of course for those of you in

America who just fell over at the cost!) each time because I didn't provide

my own tablets. Unless you specifically want to try the pure naltrexone

powder as a starting point then using your own Revia tablets is probably a

much cheaper way to go. (I must admit someone else from Melbourne posted

on here that they got theirs much more cheaply from a different pharmacy

somewhere here, so I will have to check that out when the time comes.)

Hi,

Reading through some of the posts, I can see that some people are

using Revia and are getting prescriptions filled. It was originally

recommended to me by an Aussie who has been using it successfully

for a couple of years.

I don't know how the system works outside of Australia, or whether

insurance covers Naltrexone costs in USA or anywhere else for that

matter. But maybe this would help someone out. My Revia cost nearly

AU$200 (192.49)and I only used 1 tablet. Is anyone interested in

purchasing the remaining 29 tablets, which I have kept

refrigerated? I can't bear to think of them going to waste when

they potentially could be of enormous help to someone. How about

US$100? ono and I'll cover postage. That would save some money for

the purchaser and help me recoup some of my investment so I can try

a compounded verson of the LDN. Anyone interested, contact me at

atranceformer@...

Thanks

Jan.

Hi ,

Thanks for that. I just spoke to the pharmacy and they can only

offer compounding with the Revia as the source of the Naltrexone.

That's all they can get in Australia. I don't want to use the Revia

because I suspect there is something, colour, or filler in Revia

that caused my symptoms to get so much worse as well as allergic

responses. I would have to go with the pure naltrexone 'cos I don't

want to go through that again.

I'm assuming there is somewhere in the world (USA?) that offers the

pure naltrexone for compounding. I'm also wondering what dose to

try. Perhaps 1mg so I can start low and build up to a more average

dose if I tolerate them OK. Then there's the question of what to

fill them with. I read to avoid the calcium carbonate. Any other

suggestions or suppliers info would be most welcome. Are there any

Medical professionals in Australia that are savvy about LDN? I'd

really like to talk through this with someone who understands.

Pharmacy Direct is probably the cheapest place to get prescriptions

but I think the shop is in Sydney. They have a website

www.pharmacydirect.com.au and you can purchase online if you send

them a prescription. I use them for for vitamins etc. but not

scripts. Guess it's OK if you don't mind waiting for your

prescriptions to be mailed out. But you can buy mine cheaper !!!!!

Make me an offer

Thanks, Jan.
