Low dose Naltrexone is an Exempt Medicinal Product. Such products (formerly known as Unauthorised Medicinal Products) that comply with the Protocol for the Supply of Unauthorised Medical Products are reimbursed on the General Medical Services (GMS) scheme and the other Community Drug Schemes on an individual patient basis.
