Glutathione is a naturally produced antioxidant that supports detoxification, redox balance, and cellular repair. Levels may decline with age, stress, diet, and environmental exposures. Glutathione IV therapy helps deliver glutathione directly into the bloodstream for immediate availability.
Glutathione (GSH) is a tripeptide—glutamate, cysteine, and glycine—central to phase-II detoxification (conjugation), antioxidant recycling (vitamins C & E), and redox signaling. It helps neutralize reactive species and supports the body’s natural elimination processes.
Oral glutathione has variable absorption. An IV route supports immediate circulation and may offer higher near-term availability for targeted goals.
Glutathione is infused slowly and comfortably, with real-time adjustments as needed.
Hydration and simple after-care guidance. Most people resume normal activity the same day.
Most visits are approximately 1 hour. Timing can vary by individual factors.
Your plan depends on your goals, health status, and clinician guidance.

Glutathione IV is generally well-tolerated. A small number of people may notice brief, mild symptoms (for example, a headache or fatigue) as the body processes and eliminates compounds. Let your clinician know of any symptoms—slowing the rate or pausing briefly often helps.
An initial consultation determines candidacy and individualizes care. We review recent blood work (typically within 6 weeks) before starting IV therapy.
You may ask your MD to requisition these labs. If not available, our clinic can requisition them at a cost paid by the patient.
Each route has considerations. IV delivery helps provide direct bloodstream availability for targeted goals, while oral strategies support ongoing maintenance. Your clinician will discuss options that fit your needs.
Glutathione is sometimes paired with multi-nutrient IVs based on individualized plans. Combinations are discussed during consultation.
Most people are comfortable during the infusion. If you feel unwell at any point, we can slow or pause the infusion. Mild, short-lived effects can occur and typically resolve with simple measures.
