For those of you that have had success with LDN for Ulcerative Colitis, how many weeks or months did it take for it to work for you? Thanks for the feedback!

Curious what dosage you are using?
I just started it again for pain...1.5mg.

I actually flared after 3 weeks of the 4.5 dosage...but it also gave me more excrutiating pain. Might not have been related but seems too coincidental.

How long have you been on it? I hope it works for you!

Thanks so much! It's been about a month for me thus far. Can't tell if it's really doing anything.

Do a search of LDN on this forum. Its possible there are others on it but not here often.
