The Compounder is a licensed retail pharmacy located in Aurora, Illinois - just under 40 miles west of Chicago. We devote our talents to compounding - the custom preparation of medicines from raw ingredients.

We have a passion for natural approaches. Clearly, drugs can help people recover from illness or maintain their health. It is probably more important to take care of the health we have and to strengthen our immune systems and our bodies so that disease doesn't get a toehold in the first place.


About Larry Frieders
When "everyone else" demands drugs to lower cholesterol we ask why. When "most people" agree to swallow pills made from pregnant mare urine we think there's probably a better choice.

Read our site, use it as a health resource, and take time to subscribe to our newsletters. I write them and I only send one when there is something important I think you would want to know about.

QUESTION: Do you have any customers taking LDN (low dose naltrexone) that have lupus? If so, what kind of results have they seen? Is this a drug that is temporary or do you stay on it for a lifetime?

I have been diagnosed with lupus and I am having a very difficult time getting a doctor to prescribe this for me (going on 9 months now). Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated- Thank you so much for your time.

ANSWER: People use low doses of naltrexone (LDN) for a wide range of conditions - mostly any situation that may be associated with immune system imbalance - including cancer, AIDS, infection, MS, scleroderma, Parkinson's, arthritis, irritable bowel syndrome, and so on.

Lupus can easily be classified as an immune system disorders. I presume, then, that people with lupus may benefit by using low doses of naltrexone. I suspect that when low dose naltrexone is helpful a person would want to remain on it indefinitely.

I am not able to be more specific than that. However, it clearly makes sense to consider low dose naltrexone as part of the treatment plan for lupus.

There is a doctor in Illinois who may be of assistance. I can't guarantee that he WILL be able to help, but it seems worth the effort to contact him if you've been unsuccessful so far.

Sinus Rinse System Sometimes the simplest things have the most profound impact on our health. One area that comes up often is allergies, especially the ones that cause us to sneeze and have runny noses and watery eyes. Quite often these are caused by allergens (something that causes an allergy, allergic response, or hypersensitivity) that get into our nasal passages and sinuses. It could be something as common as fine black pepper or pollen. Or it might be a vapor or chemical irritant that we are sensitive to.

Whatever the source of our irritation, it is best to remove it. The frequent sneezing is Nature's way of trying to remove the irritant.

A new product expands on the idea of removing the irritant by showing us how to cleanse our nasal sinuses. We clean our external bodies every day, but how often do we think about doing something to keep our sinuses clean? I know it didn't occur to me until I came across the Sinus Rinse system. It is simple, inexpensive, and a very safe method for removing irritants and allergens from our sinuses. I use it daily and I strongly recommend it.

A REAL Pain in the Behind - NO JOKE! I understand that this newsletter isn't for everyone. It's about hemorrhoids. Still, as many as 40% of all U.S. adults experience them to a greater or lesser degree. When they're bad, they can be very bad. For some people the common non-prescription creams and suppositories work fine. But the rest need something far more potent. Until recently there was little that would help.

Now we have a special formulation and a unique dosage form. We call it the Rectal Rocket. It's a frivolous name but it is SERIOUS MEDICINE. Standard non-surgical treatments can take weeks to resolve with the old fashion methods. Rectal Rockets have been shown to completely eliminate the problem in as little as three applications. That's complete healing with just three simple doses.

People do NOT have to suffer in silence because of the itching and burning pain of hemorrhoids. Help is available. Read our June 29 Newsletter and find out how to bring abut healing.
