How are you taking Glutathione?

[john_askins]

I ordered 1500mg vials that came yesterday and they are in 10mL vials. I asked the seller and they said to reconstitute with 5-7.5mL of BAC. I plan to dose 500mg every other day. With 6mL that’s 2mL a day. I was really hoping to keep it below 1mL but from what I read it’s too thick when you do that. So how do I do it? 2x 1mL pokes?

Is it possible to convert the powder to use sublingually?

It’s not that thick if you reconstitute with Bacteriostatic water rather than ascorbic acid. Unless you didn’t get pharma grade and it full of fillers, you will not have any trouble pulling or pushing it.

I guess more of my question is volume. Do you think I will be able to reconstitute with 3mL? Everything I’m reading says injecting more than 1mL can have a lot of discomfort.

Are you planning to inject subcutaneous or IM? For IM it would definitely be fine. If you go subcutaneous, there is less blood flow so I could understand the viscosity giving some folks a little discomfort. If you are going to go subcutaneous, I recommend a 30g, 1/2 inch syringe so you get it a little deeper.

If you do a side by side of a vial of 600mg Glutathione and a 1200mg vial, you can barely notice a difference.

I think you will be fine.

I use 1200 mg vials. I recon with 3ml vitamin c and 3ml sterile water. To get 100 mg dose I inject 50 units daily. When I first started using it I reconstituted it to be much more concentrated and it stung like crazy sub q. I think they recommend more bac so it is less painful. When injecting sub q go as deep as you can to avoid the sting.

I’m using up 600 mg vials before switching ton1500’s. The 600’s recon just fine with 1 ml BAC and I’m injecting the whole vial SQ at once with a 31g 1/2” 1ml insulin syringe. No discomfort.

Will switch from 600 mg to 500 mg soon. Recon 1500 w/ 3ml, pin 1ml 3x/wk.

Thanks for the info everyone. I just reconned with 3mL and took out 1mL and jabbed. My leg was sore for a little but overall not nearly as bad as everyone was making it out to be. Appreciate the help!

Hello everyone,

how is glutathione dosed? Does it make sense to inject it daily possibly 100mcg daily or is that too high a dose?

I'm currently taking 500mg every other day.

I personally doubt 100 mcg would provide noticeable results. I did an induction phase of 1200 mg for 5 days (Monday-Friday), then went to maintenance of 600 mg M-W-F. I’m almost out of 600 mg kits, so I’ll be using 1500 mg and reducing dose to 500 mg 3 times weekly.

 

[Chrissven]

Sorry, that was my mistake. I meant 100mg daily; I have 600mg kits. I thought 100mg daily was too much. But reading this, it should be more than okay.

I was doing 100 mg subq 5-7 days a week, but yesterday I started 200 mg subq.

 

[TacoLifter420]

I take 200mg eod, IM usually ventral glute.

 

[FNG33]

Doing 400 mg MWF SubQ, reconnecting 2400mg with 3ml Gluta-water. puffy for a day then it's fine.

Curious where you are getting the 2400 mg vials from?

 

[DunningKruger]

200mg (1mL) every 3 days, IM, vastus lateralis. That muscle can easily take 2mL when done slowly. You'll be ok with that volume IM. You could split it into two 1mLs, but the diffusion is speedy IM so it's unnecessary.

The first and second time you go IM, it's definitely sweaty palms scary. That makes it even scarier because then you have slippery hands, and the pace of plunger depression is sooooo slow.

Any number of domestic vendors, who mostly supply medspas, sell 2400 mg vials. They’re intended for recon with 250 ml saline for a weekly IV drip - keeps you paying those “wellness” storefront outrageous prices.

To spice it up, you can bundle with 1000 mg ampoule of vitamin C.

Given that the recommended max concentration of reconned glutathione is 300 mg/ml (which I routinely violate with no sides), and that it supposedly degrades fairly quickly (compared to GLPs) so should be used within a few days, I’m not sure 2400 mg vials are something I would be interested in. 1500 mg is fine. And easier and cheaper to source.

If you still want 2400 mg vials, suggest Indian or Korean online pharmaceutical sites for affordable options.

It's Prost Pharma and was $95 a kit. If I see it again I'll let you know.

We do MWF so a vial only lasts 5 days.

I'll probably get the pink cap 1200mg Korean going forward, more manageable and pricing is the same.

Supposedly, the Luthione brand is the one used in South Korean hospitals.

GB3Vault (aka GBBB) has in-stock Luthione 1200mg for $65 a kit, including UPS shipping. But I will mostly just use oral NAC after my current kit of gluta.
