Glutathion Infusion

Glutathione infusion therapy

Why is glutathione important?

Glutathione is one of the body's most powerful antioxidants and plays a key role in detoxification, cell regeneration, and protection against oxidative stress. It supports the immune system, has anti-inflammatory effects, and contributes to the regeneration of liver and nerve cells. It is also essential for protection against environmental toxins and heavy metals.

Who is the treatment suitable for?

This infusion therapy can be particularly useful for:

  • Patients with chronic fatigue or stress
  • People with oxidative stress and environmental pollution
  • People with weakened immune systems or chronic inflammation
  • Patients with liver problems or detoxification disorders
  • People who want to support preventive cell protection and anti-aging

Composition of the infusion

The infusion contains high-dose glutathione (600 mg to 2,000 mg) in a physiological carrier solution.

Treatment procedure

Before the first infusion, a medical consultation including an examination is carried out. The infusion is dosed individually and administered slowly over 20–40 minutes administered to ensure optimal absorption.

Important instructions

  • In rare cases, a slight feeling of warmth or headache may occur during the infusion.
  • Adequate fluid intake before the infusion is recommended to support detoxification.
  • Patients with kidney problems or sulfur intolerance should consult a doctor before treatment.

Note for athletes in the anti-doping program

Glutathione is permitted under the Anti-Doping Regulation. However, athletes in the doping control program are not allowed to receive infusions of 100 ml Because this infusion has a higher volume, it is not suitable for athletes in the doping control program.

Frequency of treatment

The number of infusions depends on individual needs. Typically, several sessions recommended to achieve a lasting effect.

Costs & Reimbursement

  • Privately insured: Billing is based on the German Medical Fee Schedule (GOÄ). Full reimbursement by health insurance companies cannot be guaranteed.
  • Statutory insured persons: It is not possible for statutory health insurance companies to cover the costs.
