Published for review · Scientific, medical, translation and citation review pending. Reported uses are not authorized indications. Frequency reflects mentions in supplied sources, not sales or global clinical prevalence.

Identity and synonyms

Keep reduced/oxidized forms distinct; do not classify glutathione alongside NAD as non-peptide.

Synonyms: GSH · GSSG (oxidized form)

Peptide or peptide-related · Peptide or peptide derivative

Detailed molecular class: Tripeptide; not non-peptidic

Supplied sequence or chemical reference

PubChem CID: 124886

Molecular formula: C10H17N3O6S

PubChem

Chemical structure reference

Database chemical reference; does not certify supplier vial, salt, isomer or formulation.

Mechanism

Cellular redox chemistry.

Evidence and critical reading

Reported scientific and empirical uses

Skin, hair and cosmetics

Antioxidant tripeptide offered orally, topically and IV for skin or “detox”.

Human evidence

Small oral/topical skin studies do not validate IV detoxification or systemic anti-aging claims.

Preclinical evidence

Antioxidant mechanisms do not establish a clinically useful “detox” endpoint.

Critical reading and limitations

A twelve-week oral trial assessed skin; it does not validate infusions, universal lightening or general clinical detoxification.

Evidence applies to the exact molecule, formulation, route, population and endpoint studied. Supplier identity, purity and clinical equivalence are unverified.

Source-specific regimens

Descriptive source observations, not individual recommendations.

Regulatory product labeling

Listed regimens preserve source/context. An empty layer means no regimen attributable to this identity was verified in this review; it does not prove universal absence of data.

Human-study exposure

NOT A RECOMMENDATION.Each amount is attributed to the source identified for that entry: regulatory product labeling, human research, or community and practice sources. These source categories have different evidentiary roles. They are not medical advice, not a protocol, not a recommended or safe dose, and not evidence that it works. Do not use them to start, change or stop any treatment. Talk to a qualified healthcare professional.

Empirical handbook

Listed regimens preserve source/context. An empty layer means no regimen attributable to this identity was verified in this review; it does not prove universal absence of data.

Regulation and safety

Jurisdiction-specific regulatory context

Jurisdiction-specific approval not verified in this card; do not infer global nonapproval.

Adverse effects and unknowns

Safety is formulation/route-specific; supplement observations cannot establish IV safety or stack compatibility.

Reduced/oxidized form, route, excipients and sterility change exposure/risks.

Contraindications

See supported safety statements and exact product label; a complete contraindication set has not been established for this catalog material.

A complete list must match the exact authorized product. For experimental materials without verified human labeling, a complete contraindication set is not established here. No list does not mean safety.

Interactions

Only explicitly cited interactions may be asserted; unstudied combinations remain unknown, not interaction-free.

Separate documented interaction, pharmacologic plausibility and unknown interaction. Absence of a blend trial does not establish compatibility.

Studies and trials

Selected studies

No selected studies are attributed in this record.

Trials attributed in the package

No trials are attributed in this record.

Trial registration does not establish efficacy or validate commercial material.
