What Low Dose Naltrexone Is and How We Compound It for Salado
UnityRX Pharmacy is a compounding pharmacy in Plano, TX that prepares low dose naltrexone (LDN) capsules and liquids to the strength a prescriber orders, for patients in Salado, and delivers or ships them to any address in Texas. Naltrexone is a medicine that blocks opioid receptors. At its usual full strength it is used in addiction medicine; at a fraction of that strength, roughly 0.5 mg to 4.5 mg, prescribers use it for a different set of reasons, and because no manufacturer sells those small strengths, it has to be compounded. Low dose naltrexone is prescribed at strengths and for purposes that differ from how naltrexone was originally developed, and that choice belongs to your prescriber.
The flow is straightforward: a provider decides LDN is appropriate and writes the strength and form, we compound capsules or a liquid to that exact strength, and it is ready for pickup at our Plano location or delivered to your door. Refills repeat the same formula unless the provider changes it. Many prescribers start low and raise the strength over several weeks, which is why a compounded liquid or a set of capsule strengths is useful. Consult your provider about whether LDN fits your treatment plan.
Low Dose Naltrexone and Weight Loss in Salado
Salado patients often find this page after reading that low dose naltrexone helps with weight loss. Here is the honest version. Naltrexone on its own is not a weight loss medicine. The research that gets quoted looked at naltrexone combined with a second medication, and even there the effect came from the pair, not from naltrexone alone. Some prescribers do include LDN in a broader weight-management plan, usually because of how it interacts with appetite and reward signaling, and some compounding formulas pair a small amount of naltrexone with other actives for that purpose. Whether any of that fits your situation is a conversation for your prescriber, who knows your history and can weigh it against other options. We compound what they order; we do not design weight-loss protocols.

Low Dose Naltrexone Benefits: What Prescribers Use It For
Prescribers most often order LDN for fibromyalgia, which has the strongest evidence behind it from small randomized trials and a 14-year clinic review, and for other chronic pain conditions. It is also used for autoimmune and inflammatory conditions such as multiple sclerosis, Crohn's disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and inflammatory skin conditions, and more recently for long COVID and POTS or dysautonomia, where the research is newer and smaller. The proposed mechanism, in plain terms: briefly blocking opioid receptors seems to make the body produce more of its own endorphins, and LDN also appears to calm certain immune cells in the nervous system that drive inflammation. The studies are small, results vary between people, and a benefit reported in one condition does not carry over to another. Individual results vary, and your prescriber can tell you whether LDN might apply to your situation.

How LDN Is Usually Started
Many prescribers begin at a small strength taken at bedtime and raise it in steps over four to eight weeks until they reach the strength they want to hold. A compounded oral liquid lets them move in tiny steps, while capsules come in fixed strengths. The schedule belongs to the prescriber, and we fill exactly what is written, including titration sets when a prescriber orders more than one strength at once.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer home delivery?
Yes. We ship compounded medication anywhere in Texas, and most orders go out the next business day once your medication is prepared. No trip to the pharmacy required.
How do I send my prescription to UnityRX Pharmacy?
Fax it to 972-214-0351, have your provider e-prescribe it, call us at 972-214-0350, or use our online transfer form.
Does low dose naltrexone help with weight loss?
On its own, naltrexone is not a weight loss medication. The research people cite studied it in combination with another medicine. Some prescribers include LDN in a wider weight-management plan; whether that applies to you is their call. We compound what your prescriber orders.
What are the benefits of low dose naltrexone?
Prescribers most often order LDN for fibromyalgia, other chronic pain conditions, and autoimmune or inflammatory conditions, and more recently for long COVID and POTS. The studies are small and results vary from person to person. Your prescriber can tell you whether the evidence applies to your condition.
What are the side effects of low dose naltrexone?
The most common report is vivid dreams in the first few weeks. Headache, trouble sleeping, nausea, and mild stomach upset have also been reported and usually ease with time or a slower increase in strength. Report anything persistent to your prescriber.
Can I take LDN if I take opioid pain medication?
Naltrexone blocks opioid receptors. Anyone taking opioid pain medication, buprenorphine, or methadone should tell their prescriber before starting LDN, because it can trigger withdrawal. This is a prescriber decision, not a pharmacy one.
Why does LDN have to be compounded?
Naltrexone is manufactured only at a much higher strength for addiction medicine. The small strengths used for LDN are not sold commercially, so a compounding pharmacy prepares them to the prescriber's order.
What strengths of LDN does UnityRX compound for Salado patients?
Most prescriptions we fill fall between 0.5 mg and 4.5 mg, as capsules or an oral liquid, and we can prepare other strengths when a prescriber orders them. The strength on your label is always the one your prescriber wrote.
Should I take LDN at night or in the morning?
Many prescribers start with bedtime dosing; some move it to the morning if dreams or sleep are a problem. Follow the schedule on your prescription and ask your prescriber before changing it.
Can UnityRX compound LDN for fibromyalgia in Salado?
If your provider prescribes low dose naltrexone for fibromyalgia, we prepare it to the strength and form they order and deliver or ship it to Salado. Whether LDN is appropriate for your case is your provider's decision.
Do you make LDN for autoimmune conditions?
We compound naltrexone to whatever strength a prescriber writes, regardless of the condition they are treating. Diagnosis and treatment choice stay with your provider; we do not advise on either.
Do you offer LDN as a liquid or sublingual drops instead of capsules?
When a prescriber orders it, yes. An oral liquid lets the strength move in very small steps during titration; sublingual drops are an option for patients who have trouble with capsules. Availability of each form is confirmed at the time of the order.
How long does LDN titration usually take?
Prescribers commonly raise the strength in steps over four to eight weeks, but the schedule is theirs to set and varies by patient. We fill each step exactly as written, including titration sets with more than one strength.
How long does LDN delivery to Salado take once it is compounded?
Most Salado orders are ready to ship or deliver the same day the pharmacist finishes compounding; deliveries and statewide shipping typically go out the next business day, and pickup at our Plano location is available if you call ahead.
Can my Salado telehealth provider send an LDN prescription to UnityRX?
Yes. Telehealth providers can fax or e-prescribe an LDN prescription to UnityRX Pharmacy the same way an in-person prescriber would.
