Compounded glutathione

What the medication is used for

Compounded glutathione is a compounded medication. Compounded medications are not approved by the FDA, and the FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness, or quality as compounded products.

A licensed provider may consider compounded glutathione for antioxidant support, based on your health history, current medications, allergies, location, and other clinical information. This page does not describe an FDA-approved product.

Who may not be able to use it

A provider may determine that compounded glutathione is not appropriate if you have a known allergy to any ingredient, an active infection at a potential injection site, or a medical condition that your provider identifies as a reason for caution.

This product is not FDA-approved for the uses described here, and the supporting evidence for these uses is limited. A provider decides, case by case, whether it may be appropriate for you.

Important warnings and precautions

Glutathione is not FDA-approved for the uses described here, and evidence supporting its use is limited.

Reported effects include lightening of the skin. Serious reactions, including Stevens-Johnson syndrome and thyroid dysfunction, have been reported with some routes of glutathione administration.

As with any injection, there is a risk of injection-site pain, redness, swelling, bruising, infection, or abscess, and a risk of an allergic reaction.

See Important Safety Information at /safety-information for the full safety summary that applies across Julora's compounded medications.

Common side effects

Important interactions

Tell your provider about every prescription medication, over-the-counter medication, and supplement you take before starting treatment, since your provider needs a complete picture of your health history to determine whether this product is appropriate and safe alongside anything else you take.

Pregnancy and breastfeeding information

This product is not for use in pregnancy or while breastfeeding unless a provider specifically determines that it is appropriate for you. Tell your provider if you are pregnant, trying to conceive, or breastfeeding.

How the medication is dispensed

Compounded glutathione is dispensed by VSDH, a state-licensed compounding pharmacy, after a licensed provider issues a valid prescription. Once prescribed, VSDH prepares your prescription and ships it to the address on your Julora account.

How the medication is stored

Follow the storage and missed-dose instructions on your medication label and in the material VSDH sends with your prescription, and ask your provider or the pharmacy if anything is unclear.

What to do if a dose is missed

Follow the storage and missed-dose instructions on your medication label and in the material VSDH sends with your prescription, and ask your provider or the pharmacy if anything is unclear.

How to contact the pharmacy

Contact the pharmacy using the contact details supplied with your prescription for questions about your medication label, delivery, storage, or the product you received.

How to report a side effect

You can report a side effect through Julora's secure clinical messaging channel, directly to VSDH, the dispensing pharmacy, or to the FDA MedWatch program at 1-800-FDA-1088 or fda.gov/medwatch.

Price and renewal terms

Compounded Glutathione (4 weeks): $99 for the first 4 weeks, then $129 every 4 weeks. Compounded Glutathione (12 weeks): $349 every 12 weeks. Your card is saved securely when you order and is only charged after a licensed provider reviews your medical intake and approves treatment. A provider typically completes this review within 24 to 48 hours. If the provider does not approve treatment for you, you are not charged and nothing ships. Completing an order is not a prescription and does not guarantee one. You can cancel at any time in your account or by emailing support@getjulorahealth.com before your next billing date. Medication that has already shipped cannot be returned.

State and service availability

Availability depends on the specific service, your location, the provider's license, and pharmacy licensing in your state. Use the availability checker at /check-availability to see what may be available to you.
