Avoid Calcium Carbonate and cornstarch...cornstarch can make you sick to your stomach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 Hi Shel, I've had good luck with avicel. Calcium Carbonate can pack down causing a slow release. You want a fast release. Others have mentioned gelatin, acidophilus and lactose. I recently ran across a friend that was paying an unbelievable price for her ldn. She is in Hamilton. I gave her the info. for the pharmacy I deal with. They do compounding and I recently found out they can get pure naltrexone and make a liquid. It would be at a higher price. Anyway approximate total cost including shipping is around $55 for 30 capsules. Just letting you know so the same thing doesn't happen to you. Take Care .. > > I have heard calcium carbonate filler is not good. What is the best filler to use? I'am getting these caps pharmacy made.
