We are pleased to have those able to travel to Orlando here with us today and all of those around the world watching the interactive live stream.The LDN 2016 AIIC Conference is the only LDN focused event in the world and the premier chronic disease and cancer conference of its kind. Here is where the LDN community come to meet, share ideas and learn from each other. You have the unique opportunity to present your questions to the experts.

This is a time of great promise. Numerous research studies as well as reports from patients, their physicians and pharmacists are showing tremendous

breakthroughs and success using LDN for the autoimmune disease, pain and cancers. But our optimism must be backed by action and drive if we are to see LDN reach its full potential.

We would like to thank all the speakers for giving up their time to be with us, without them there would be no conference!

I hope you have a rewarding time at our event.

Chronic Progressive MS and High Dose Biotin

Mark Drugs has been a patient destination for those who are looking for new and sometimes unusual products for many years. Many of those who reach out to us are clinicians and their patients with chronic illnesses that have not responded well to conventional medications or who require special care or dosages that our compounding labs specialize in.

Recently we have been contacted by quite a few patients, their caregivers and clinicians regarding a diagnosis of and treatment for PROGRESSIVE MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS.

These patients and their practitioners have become interested in using BIOTIN as a result of a RECENTLY PUBLISHED STUDY in the journal: Multiple Sclerosis Related Disorders (2015 Mar;4(2):159-169 - PMID: 25787192). The study reports remarkable success for this patient group using 100-300mg/day for 2-8 months with a strong residual positive result.

As BIOTIN is a nutritional product and is available without a prescription, insurance companies will

not pay for this product and it is a very expensive nutritional. Mark Drugs has worked with its’ chemical wholesaler to obtain BIOTIN at a greatly reduced rate.

We make a 300mg capsule, recommended by the article to be taken once daily or a 100mg capsule used three times daily.

Mark Drugs is a PCAB Accredited compounding pharmacy that uses only chemicals from FDA approved and registered sources that provide a Certificate of Assay confirming the potency and purity of every chemical lot.

Please contact our staff with any questions or comments or to have us contact your physician with more information.

THE LDN BOOKLow Dose Naltrexone (LDN) holds the potential to help millions of people suffering from various autoimmune diseases and cancers, and even autism, chronic fatigue, and depression, find relief. Administered off-label in small daily doses (0.5 to 4.5 mg), this generic drug is extremely affordable and presents few known side effects. Why has it languished in relative medical obscurity?

The LDN Book explains the drug’s origins, its primary mechanism, and the latest research from practicing physicians and pharmacists as compiled by Linda Elsegood of The LDN Research Trust, the world’s largest LDN charity organization with over 19,000 members worldwide. Featuring ten chapters contributed by medical professionals on LDN’s efficacy and two patient friendly appendices, The LDN Book is a comprehensive resource for doctors, pharmacists, and patients who want to learn more about how LDN is helping people now, and a clarion call for further research that could help millions more.

The LDN Book launch is at the LDN 2016 conference, we are offering attendees in Orlando the chance to purchase the book at $20 instead of the RRP of $27.99
