Glutathione Injection
Antioxidant support — by exception only
A compounded antioxidant injection. Evidence for the wellness claims often made about glutathione is thin, and because it is a 503A preparation your NP has to document a specific clinical reason before it can be dispensed in your name. We would rather say that plainly than sell it as a routine add-on.
This is not where treatment usually starts. It is prescribed when the manufactured, FDA-approved option has been ruled out for you specifically, and your nurse practitioner has to write down why before it can be sent to a pharmacy. You are welcome to ask about it — just expect the conversation.

Please read
- Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and have not been evaluated by FDA for safety or effectiveness.
- Clinical evidence for the commonly advertised benefits is limited. Your NP will tell you what is and is not established.
- A 503A pharmacy may not supply clinic stock. Every dose is filled in your name.
About compounded medication
A compounded preparation is made for one named patient by a licensed pharmacy. It is not an FDA-approved product: the FDA does not review it for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality. Your nurse practitioner has to record a specific clinical reason why the commercially available product will not work for you before this can be prescribed — and cost on its own is not one.
A 503A pharmacy may not supply a clinic with shared stock, so your prescription is filled in your name and shipped to the clinic for you. A nurse cannot administer it without linking the order it came from.
