About Low-dose naltrexone (LDN)

Low-dose naltrexone (LDN) refers to naltrexone prescribed at much lower strengths than standard commercially manufactured naltrexone tablets. In the United States, LDN is commonly compounded when a prescriber needs patient-specific strengths such as 0.5 mg to 4.5 mg, an oral liquid for titration, or an excipient profile that is not available from a manufactured product.

How to get LDN online

Getting low-dose naltrexone online takes three steps: a prescription, a compounding pharmacy to make it, and delivery. Naltrexone is prescription-only but not a controlled substance, so any licensed prescriber, including a telehealth provider, can write it, and a compounding pharmacy in one state can ship it to you in another.

Commercial naltrexone comes only as 50 mg tablets, so the 0.5 mg to 6 mg doses used for LDN must be compounded. Bundled telehealth subscriptions include the prescriber visit and the medication for a monthly fee; the a la carte route is a one-time prescriber visit and then whichever compounding pharmacy quotes the best price for your strength, count and filler. A prescription is yours to fill anywhere, so you are never tied to the prescriber's pharmacy.

If you already have a prescription, or a prescriber ready to write one, request quotes below. We send the request to compounding pharmacies that make LDN and ship to your state and email you their prices, usually within one to two business days.

Compounded LDN in the USA

Compounded LDN in the USA is low-dose naltrexone prepared by a licensed compounding pharmacy when a prescriber needs a low strength or dosage form that is not commercially available. Standard naltrexone tablets are commonly manufactured at 50 mg, while LDN prescriptions are often written for much lower strengths such as 0.5 mg, 1.5 mg, 3 mg, or 4.5 mg.

A valid prescription is required. Compounding Finder does not prescribe LDN or decide whether LDN is appropriate for a patient; that decision belongs to the patient's licensed clinician and dispensing pharmacist.

Common LDN forms and strengths

The most common compounded LDN form is an oral capsule. Pharmacies may also prepare oral liquid for patients who need slower titration, sublingual tablets or troches for patients who prefer a dissolving form, and topical preparations when specifically prescribed.

Prescriptions should state the exact strength, dosage form, quantity, directions, and any inactive ingredient requirements. This matters for patients who need dye-free, gluten-free, lactose-free, or other excipient-specific formulations.

How LDN pricing is compared

LDN pricing varies by strength, dosage form, quantity, pharmacy workflow, shipping, and whether the prescription requires special inactive ingredients. A 30-day capsule prescription is usually priced differently from a titration liquid or a 90-day supply.

The pricing range on this page is based on active pharmacy price listings tracked by Compounding Finder. It is not a guaranteed quote. Submit your prescription details to compare current prices from licensed pharmacies that can evaluate the actual formulation.

Safety and legality notes

FDA says compounded drugs are not FDA-approved, which means FDA does not verify the safety, effectiveness, or quality of each compounded preparation before it is marketed. Patients should use licensed U.S. pharmacies, avoid sellers that ship without a prescription, and ask the pharmacy about quality standards for the dosage form being dispensed.

LDN is often discussed for immune, pain, and inflammatory conditions, but off-label use should be evaluated by a clinician who knows the patient's history, medications, and opioid exposure risk.

Key Questions Before You Request Quotes

Can I get Low-dose naltrexone (LDN) compounded?

Possibly. A licensed prescriber has to decide whether Low-dose naltrexone (LDN) is appropriate, and a licensed compounding pharmacy has to confirm it can legally prepare the requested strength, form, and quantity.

Is a prescription needed?

Yes. Patient-specific 503A compounding is based on a valid prescription order or prescriber notation for an identified patient.

What affects price?

Strength, dosage form, quantity, ingredient sourcing, sterile versus non-sterile preparation, shipping requirements, and each pharmacy's workflow can all change the final quote.

How fast can I get quotes?

For routable requests, Compounding Finder typically returns quote options by email within 1-2 business days after you submit the request details.

What happens after I submit?

We review the request, route it to eligible licensed pharmacies, collect available options, and email you the quoted choices. You decide whether to move forward with a pharmacy.

Source notes: FDA explains that compounded drugs are not FDA-approved finished products and describes 503A compounding around patient-specific prescriptions. See Compounding and the FDA and Section 503A.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is compounded LDN?

Compounded LDN is low-dose naltrexone prepared by a licensed compounding pharmacy in a patient-specific strength or dosage form. It is used when the prescriber needs a low strength, titration liquid, sublingual form, topical preparation, or excipient profile that is not available as a standard manufactured product.

Do I need a prescription for compounded LDN in the USA?

Yes. Compounded low-dose naltrexone requires a valid prescription from a licensed U.S. healthcare provider. A legitimate compounding pharmacy should not dispense LDN without a prescription.

What forms can U.S. compounding pharmacies make for LDN?

Common compounded LDN forms include capsules, oral liquid, sublingual tablets or troches, and topical preparations. Availability depends on the pharmacy, the prescription, and whether the requested formulation is appropriate for that patient.

How much does compounded LDN cost?

The cost depends on strength, form, quantity, shipping, and the pharmacy. Capsules are often the simplest option, while oral liquids, sublingual forms, topical preparations, or special excipient requests may cost more. The pricing table on this page shows active listings tracked by Compounding Finder, but a personalized pharmacy quote is needed for the exact prescription.

Is compounded LDN FDA-approved?

No. FDA says compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. Compounded LDN is prepared by a licensed pharmacy for a specific patient under a prescription; the final compounded preparation is not reviewed by FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality before dispensing.

Can I get LDN online?

Yes. Low-dose naltrexone is prescription-only but not a controlled substance, so a licensed telehealth provider can prescribe it after an online evaluation and a licensed compounding pharmacy can ship it to your state. You can also take a prescription from your own doctor to any compounding pharmacy that ships to you.

How do I get an LDN prescription online?

Ask your own prescriber first. If they will not write it, the LDN Research Trust lists prescribers who work with LDN, and telehealth services such as LDN Direct, LDN Doctor, AgelessRx and Hone Health prescribe it after an online consultation. Some bundle the medication with the visit; others write the prescription and let you fill it wherever you choose.

How much does LDN cost without insurance?

At the compounding pharmacies in our price book, LDN capsules typically cost $0.67 to $2.10 each, so a 30-day supply is usually $20 to $60 and a 90-count fill $60 to $120 before shipping. Bundled telehealth subscriptions advertise about $25 to $79 a month including the prescriber visit. Insurance rarely covers compounded LDN; HSA and FSA funds can usually be used.

Do I have to use the telehealth company's pharmacy?

No. A prescription belongs to you. Ask the service to send it to the compounding pharmacy you choose, or to give you a copy, and compare prices before you decide.

Note: Tirzepatide & Semaglutide can only be compounded for patients with a documented medical necessity — such as an allergy to an inactive ingredient or need for an alternative formulation. Diagnosis alone (e.g. weight loss, type 2 diabetes) and cost are not valid reasons under FDA 503A. Wegovy and the single-dose Zepbound and Mounjaro pens and vials are already preservative-free, so that on its own is not a reason either.

Required by your pharmacy under FDA 503A. The Rx must document this reason — the pharmacy will reject a generic or diagnosis-only justification.

We can no longer fulfill compounded Natural Desiccated Thyroid (NDT) requests. The FDA is taking enforcement action against unapproved animal-derived thyroid products, and US compounding pharmacies are no longer filling NDT prescriptions. FDA-approved alternatives — Armour Thyroid, NP Thyroid, and WP Thyroid — remain available at retail pharmacies with a prescription. See alternatives →
Prescription quantity tip: enter the amount dispensed in one fill. For example, if your Rx says "60 capsules, refill ×2", enter 60, not 180. For creams, gels, lotions, foams, and transdermal/vaginal preparations, choose grams or mL exactly as written.
