Glutathione Pharmacokinetics
Glutathione half-life, absorption, routes of administration, and clearance.
Rapid Intracellular Turnover
Free circulating glutathione has a very short plasma half-life — on the order of minutes — because it's rapidly taken up and recycled intracellularly via the glutathione redox cycle rather than persisting in the bloodstream like a conventional drug.
