Glutathione IV

Intravenous glutathione infusion delivering the body's master antioxidant directly into the bloodstream for enhanced detoxification, cellular protection, and skin brightening effects.

Glutathione is a tripeptide (glutamic acid, cysteine, glycine) produced naturally in every cell of the body, serving as the primary intracellular antioxidant and a critical component of the liver's detoxification pathways. Oral glutathione supplementation has notoriously poor bioavailability due to breakdown in the digestive tract, making intravenous delivery the most effective route for achieving therapeutic plasma levels. The glutathione IV at Prague Body Clinic delivers a concentrated dose over approximately 45 minutes. At elevated plasma concentrations, glutathione supports Phase II liver detoxification, neutralises reactive oxygen species throughout the body, and helps regenerate other antioxidants including vitamins C and E. Many patients also seek glutathione infusions for skin-brightening effects, as the molecule inhibits tyrosinase activity and shifts melanin production from dark eumelanin toward lighter pheomelanin. The treating physician assesses suitability before the first infusion, as glutathione is contraindicated in certain conditions. The infusion is well tolerated by most patients, with occasional mild side effects including temporary flushing or a metallic taste during administration. Results are cumulative, and a course of four to six weekly sessions is often recommended for detoxification or skin-brightening goals. Priced at 1,500 CZK (approximately 60 EUR), the glutathione IV at Prague Body Clinic is accessible for patients who want to incorporate regular antioxidant therapy into their health routine. The same treatment in Western European clinics commonly ranges from 150 to 300 EUR per session.
