Compounded Medications for Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS), also known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS), is a debilitating, long-term condition characterized by extreme, unexplained fatigue that persists for at least six months and is not alleviated by rest.
It significantly impairs daily activities and is often accompanied by post-exertional malaise (PEM), where symptoms worsen after minimal physical or mental effort.
Additional symptoms may include:
- Unrefreshing sleep
- Cognitive difficulties (also known as “brain fog”)
- Orthostatic intolerance
- Muscle/joint pain
- Headaches
- Sore throat
- Swollen lymph nodes
We specialize in compounded therapies to address underlying hormonal, immune, and metabolic imbalances, providing personalized relief to improve energy, function, and quality of life for those with CFS.
Comprehensive Management of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Our individualized compounding approach targets CFS by creating medications that support energy production, modulate immunity, and restore balance, offered in user-friendly forms such as capsules, troches, or creams to enhance adherence and minimize side effects, thereby complementing lifestyle strategies for holistic management.
- Low-Dose Naltrexone (LDN) to reduce inflammation, boost endorphins, and improve sleep and pain, often starting at 1–4.5 mg nightly.
- Hormone precursors like compounded DHEA, pregnenolone, or 7-Keto DHEA to address adrenal fatigue and enhance vitality without converting to sex hormones.
- Thyroid support with custom T3/T4 blends or natural desiccated thyroid to optimize metabolism in cases of suboptimal conversion.
- Nutrient and adaptogen formulations, such as coenzyme Q10, magnesium, or B-vitamin complexes, to bolster mitochondrial function and combat oxidative stress.
- Pacing techniques, graded exercise therapy (under supervision), cognitive behavioral support, and regular symptom tracking with adjusted compounds based on progress and labs.
