Guest guest Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 I have just tried some Glutithione IV once a week for 2 weeks now. 500 mg. I just gave myself an IM gluthione shot. It was only 500 mg of it in 2.5 CC The shot did not hurt at first but now is getting increasingly painful at the site. I get a Gamma Globulin IV every week anyway so I get the IV push before that with the same needle site. I am going to up my dosage next week to 2,000 mg of Glutithione once a week. 10 CC of the 200 mg per ml. I hope it makes a difference in my health. I wanted to find out if anyone has used the glutithione by suppository. I do not think I want to give myself the shots twice a week if I can avoid it. I heard from a Pharmicist & my Doctor that it did not work as well as the IV or IM because it did not get into the system well enough, that it was better for local lung or sinus infections or problems. That is all the info I have at this point. Anyone have info on Glutithione suppositories? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 11, 2003 Report Share Posted September 11, 2003 I was wondering if anyone has used glutathione nebulizer or suppositories. What was your experience and any results? -- in AZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 15, 2003 Report Share Posted September 15, 2003 My Dr. & the Drs. around here dealing with CFIDS seem to use it & my Nurse says she does a lot of the IV's & shots & it seems safe at high dosages for everyone in her experience. I just did a 10 CC IV push today before my GG IV. that is 20,000 mg. That is really not a lot as far as local Rx dosages seem to go. My Dr. says that amount a week is fine for now & I will have to see if it helps me or I need to do a lower dose 3 X a week or increase the amount. Hard to tell about anything yet because I went out yesterday & am still recovering from that. I have a phone appt tomorrow & can ask her for more info.

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2003 Report Share Posted September 15, 2003 Hi: I don't have the answer to your question but am wondering how hard was it to convince your doctor to try such a high dose; is there in literature on such a dose? Good luck with the glutathione. thank you in advance best, lea > I have just tried some Glutithione IV once a week for 2 weeks now. 500 mg. I > just gave myself an IM gluthione shot.

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 Hi Lea, I talked with my Dr. today & she said that she is going to talk with an East Coast Colleague about this for more details. Supposedly Glutihion by nebulizer helped some patinets with Environmental allergies. So I am very interested in that. I will let you know as soon as she gets back to me. She did say I could up my dosage of the Glutithion by IM if I felt I needed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
