Frequently asked questions
What is glutathione and why is it important?
Glutathione is a naturally occurring antioxidant made from three amino acids: cysteine, glutamate, and glycine. It is produced by the body and found throughout its cells.
Glutathione is part of the body’s normal antioxidant system and participates in cellular oxidation-reduction processes. Its levels and clinical significance can vary based on individual health circumstances. A licensed healthcare provider can explain whether evaluation or treatment is appropriate for you.
Why choose injectable glutathione over oral supplements?
Oral and injectable glutathione use different routes of administration. Oral supplements are taken by mouth, while injectable glutathione is administered by injection under the direction of a licensed healthcare provider.
The appropriate formulation depends on factors such as your medical history, individual needs, dosage requirements, and your prescriber’s clinical judgment. Your healthcare provider can discuss the available options and determine whether an injectable formulation is appropriate for you.
How often are glutathione injections administered?
Injection frequency is determined by your prescribing provider following an individual medical evaluation. Your provider will establish the dosage and schedule based on your medical history and treatment plan.
Follow the prescribed schedule and consult your provider before changing the dose or frequency.
Can glutathione be combined with other protocols?
Whether glutathione can be used with NAD+ or other treatments depends on your medical history, current medications, supplements, and prescribed treatment plan.
Tell your healthcare provider about everything you currently take. Do not combine treatments or change your regimen unless your prescribing provider determines that the combination is appropriate for you.
What are the side effects and precautions?
Possible side effects may include:
- Injection-site discomfort, redness, or swelling
- Headache or lightheadedness
- Nausea or gastrointestinal discomfort
- Allergic reactions
This is not a complete list of potential side effects.
Before treatment, tell your provider about:
- All medications and supplements you take
- Any medication or ingredient allergies
- Current or planned cancer treatment
- Pregnancy, plans to become pregnant, or breastfeeding
- Any existing medical conditions
Your provider will determine whether treatment is appropriate for you. Contact your provider about persistent or concerning symptoms, and seek urgent medical care for signs of a serious allergic reaction.
