Glutathione
Master endogenous antioxidant in injectable and oral forms.
What it does
What Glutathione is and why doctors prescribe it.
Glutathione is the body's most abundant endogenous antioxidant, present in nearly every cell. Doctors prescribe injectable glutathione as part of detoxification protocols, oxidative-stress contexts, and select chronic-illness adjunct regimens. Oral liposomal forms are also used.
How it works
Mechanism in plain English.
Glutathione (a tripeptide of glutamate, cysteine, and glycine) acts as the primary substrate for glutathione peroxidase to neutralize hydrogen peroxide and lipid peroxides. It also conjugates xenobiotics in Phase II liver detoxification. Levels decline with age, oxidative stress, and certain disease states.
How long it's been studied
Research history.
Glutathione biology has been studied since the 1880s, with extensive characterization through the 20th century. Modern clinical use includes acetaminophen overdose treatment (N-acetylcysteine, a precursor) and compounded glutathione for adjunct supportive care.
Dosing
Clinical context for the prescribing doctor.
Doctor-prescribed. Injectable glutathione is typically dispensed at 200 mg/mL for IV, IM, or SC administration; doses commonly fall in the 600–2,000 mg per administration range, weekly or twice-weekly. Oral liposomal forms come in 500 mg capsules. Your doctor selects route and frequency.
This page is informational, not a dispensing aid. Glutathione is dispensed only on a patient-specific prescription written by a licensed doctor for an identified patient. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and should not be evaluated using branded-drug trial data. Availability varies by state and prescribed medication.
