[DESCRIPTION] white powder.
Glutathione is an antioxidant formed from the amino acid cysteine, glutamate and glycine. Virtually all your cells have glutathione, but this antioxidant is most highly concentrated in your liver, pancreas, spleen and eyes. Your glutathione levels dwindle as you age. Taking glutathione supplements may offset the reduced glutathione levels caused by age. Glutathione supplements may be administered intramusclely or intravenously. You can also take glutathione supplements in oralform or via nebulizer. No known side effects are associated with injections of glutathione.

Glutathione is primarily responsible for reducing the levels of cysteine on the surface of proteins and helps protect your body from free-radical damage.Recent scientific research has shown that the level of glutathione in your cells has a direct impact on and is an important indicator of the health and appearance of your skin. Your skin all over the body will become white after taking enough doses of glutathione. Glutathione also helps synthesize and repair DNA. Glutathione facilitates the recycling of vitamins C and E. Intravenous glutathione impairs platinum buildup in your kidneys. It helps transport amino acids and plays a vital role in purging your body of toxic compounds such as heavy metals. By helping your body detoxify, glutathione helps reduce your risk of developing cancer. Glutathione is able to fight cancer by causing malignant cells to die but keeping healthy cells alive. This antioxidant also slows your body's aging process.

Your body may develop coordination problems as a result of glutathione deficiency. Deficient glutathione levels can cause red blood cells to rupture and impair the functioning of white blood cells. Your nerve tissue may deteriorate as a result of glutathione deficiency, and you may suffer mental and nervous system disorders such as tremors and twitching.

[INDICATIONS]
1) Adjuvant in intoxications by chemotherapeutic (cisplatin, cyclophosphamide, adriamycin, rubidomycin,bleomycin), lessen the damage caused by chemotherapeutics without influence on therapy, so be able to increase the dose of chemotherapeutics.
2) Adjuvant in prophylaxis and treatment of damages from ionization radiations.
3) Adjuvant in hypoxemia: such as acute anaemia, ARDS (Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome), septicaemia and so on.
4) Adjuvant in hepatitis caused by virus, pharmaceutical, ethyl alcohol and other chemicals.
5) Adjuvant in intoxications by orgnaophosphorus, amino- or nitro-compounds.
[STRENGTH] 0.6g, 1.2g, 1.8g, 2.4g
[DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION]
1. Administration route: (1) intravenous injection: The product is dissolved with Water for Injection and added to 100ml NS (normal saline), administered by intravenous drop infusion .

[PHARMACOLOGY AND TOXICOLOGY]
Glutathione is a natural tripeptide present in the cells of all the organs and apparatus. Its wide distribution is connected to an extended variety of biological functions and has fundamental importance in numerous biochemical functions. Being the prosthetic group of glyceraldehyde phosphate dehydrognase and coenzyme of glyoxalase and triose dehydroganse ,Glutathione has important role in tricarboxylic acid cycle and glycometabolism .Through activating many enzymes,Glutathione can promote the metabolism of carbohydrate .fat and protein; its free sulfidrilic group represents a powerful acceptor of free radicals and its connection which is created between Glutathione and free radicals determines the formation of acids which are easily metabolized and lessen the damage caused by chemotherapeutics or ionization radiations without influence on therapy, especially in enteritis stimulated by  radiations;
Glutathione also can promote restoring ,lessen tissue damage caused by hypoxemia of total or local body which always represents in anaemia,intoxication and tissue inflammation. GSH can protect liver in synthesization, detoxication and inactivating hormone, increase metabolism of cholic acid, and promote assimilation of fat and Vitamin (A,D,E,K) in alimentary tract.
[PHARMACOKINETICS]
The peak time of the reduced glutathione administered i.m. in mice is 5 h, t1/2 about 24 h, and the product most distributed in liver, kidney, and muscle.
[STORAGE] Protect from light and well closed. Kept in cool and dry places(with temperature below 20ºC).
