Does anyone know if there is a compounding pharmacy that provides glutathione or magnesium for IV premixed in syringes that also will put it through your insurance?
I can get them from one pharmacy through insurance, but must mix them myself in syringes. I know one pharmacy that will premix, but they don't put it through insurance, and it's really expensive. Thank you.

Nope, sorry. My son's insurance doesn't cover his Glutathione at all and he gets his IV in his doctors office.

JoesMom,
My insurance didn't cover it either in the doctor's office, but does cover it for home use.
Either you can do in IV at home, if he has a PICC or peripheral line, or he could nebulize it (if he has the patience to breathe it in for 15 minutes or so). Some people have had luck with either a nasal gel or a cream. But the IV is the strongest.
