Regarding costs for Glutathione, you can check with Wellness Pharmacy regarding cost. Average doses are around 1400 mg twice to three times a week, plus cost for saline solution and injection supplies IF it is injected by a family member in the home - otherwise you have the additional cost for a nurse to do the injection - and you will need a doctor's prescription to get it. Home injection usually runs around $400 American a month.

We had seen him and how stiff he wasfrom PD, and then the next time we saw him, he looked completely normal and was ridinghis bike daily and walking quite a bit. He reported having gone to see Dr. Perlmutter,and so we followed up and found a doctor in our location to write the prescription.Mom had not been able to write legibly and after the first injection that problem wassolved, and more..And yes, there have been studies done. One came out this last summer and was publishedby the National Parkison's Foundation. The study did not follow the dose level andother recommendations of Perlmutter with results which showed no improvement.At this point, I've had enough contact with enough people who have received IVglutathione with success to know that there is merit in its use at least for some, butwe also augmented Mom's program with > several items mentioned in Dr. Permutter's bookwhich covered this topic.The first injection she got at the doctor's office resulted in an increased walkingspeed immediately. Mom didn't notice it but my brother and I most certainly were awareof how she walked at an almost normal speed. It was unmistakable.She now gets injected twice a week by a nurse, and she is not having any significant PDchallenges at this time. Shaking is substantially down and remained down. Her other PDmedications (Azilect and Sinemet) have not needed any dose change since starting theglutathione.I've not been opening the PD emails for a few months, just deleting them at this pointbut happened to open this one which was a bit negative about glutathione, suggesting ifno studies were done that it might be "perspired", and that sort of ridicule struck meas clearly coming from ignorance. There are pharmacies who sell it and they havedoctors listed and you can contact these doctors and ask their experiences.ONE > MAJOR POINT - There is no downside to this medication which has other healthbenefits - no side effects, and minimal cost."K.
