Positives

• One ME/CFS patient reported that IV glutathione several years ago “really helped” her sleep and mood with no side effects, calling it the intervention that got her through the worst period of her illness Phoenix Rising.
  
  

Negatives

• A user reported that even at a much smaller dose of 10 mg delivered as a slow push she could not notice any benefit despite testing very low on reduced glutathione, and discontinued the protocol after several sessions Phoenix Rising.
  
  
• A third patient working with Dr. Sarah Myhill reported combining methyl-B12 injections with 250 mg oral L-glutathione alongside occasional IV glutathione pushes, and said the IV sessions helped most with acid reflux and stomach pain but did not change her overall functional level Phoenix Rising.
  
  

Hurdles & Side Effects

• Phoenix Rising members caution that patients with CBS, SUOX, or BHMT SNPs may have trouble with sulfur-containing compounds including glutathione, and that finding a willing practitioner requires starting at a low dose (10-50 mg) and titrating slowly after observing the individual reaction Phoenix Rising.
  
  
• Community discussion distinguishes IV glutathione (a single push of 400-2000 mg delivered at an integrative clinic) from oral S-acetyl glutathione, liposomal glutathione, and nebulized glutathione; the delivery routes are not interchangeable and patients often respond differently to each form Phoenix Rising.
