Glutathione Injections in Philadelphia & South Jersey
Physician-Guided Antioxidant Support with Dr. Robert Fortino
Glutathione is your body’s primary internal antioxidant, naturally produced to help shield cells from everyday oxidative stress. Because oral pills often break down in the stomach before reaching your system, intramuscular injections deliver the compound directly into circulation.
At our offices in Philadelphia and Turnersville, Dr. Fortino provides one-on-one evaluations to see if compounded glutathione injections fit into your broader wellness and recovery routine.

Clinical Evaluation of Complex Medical Histories
At our offices in Philadelphia, PA, and Turnersville, NJ, Dr. Robert Fortino, DO, provides comprehensive medical reviews prior to considering any supportive therapy.
Because compounded medications require individualized clinical judgment, certain health profiles require detailed assessment and collaboration with your primary specialist:
- Comprehensive Health Screenings: Dr. Fortino reviews your overall medical history, current prescription regimens, and existing diagnoses to ensure all aspects of your care are aligned.
- Specialist Coordination: Individuals currently managing chronic medical conditions or undergoing specialized medical treatments must be evaluated in close coordination with their managing specialists (such as oncologists, nephrologists, or infectious disease specialists).
- Individualized Determining Factors: Prescription compounded therapies are never a substitute for standard medical care, disease management, or specialized primary treatment plans. Treatment decisions are made strictly on an individualized basis following an in-person medical evaluation.
Required Prescribing & Regulatory Disclosures
- Prescription Compounded Medication: Injectable glutathione is a prescription compounded drug prepared by state-licensed 503A or 503B compounding pharmacies pursuant to an individual physician prescription. It is not an over-the-counter dietary supplement.
- FDA Status Notice: Compounded medications are not reviewed or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for effectiveness or specific therapeutic outcomes. Compounded glutathione is not FDA-approved to treat, cure, mitigate, or prevent fatigue, metabolic disorders, or hair loss, nor is it approved to treat or alter side effects associated with weight-loss medications.
- No Pre-Packaged Drug Combinations: Compounded therapies are never administered as standardized stacks or routine additions to prescription weight-loss medications. Candidacy is determined solely through an in-person medical evaluation with Dr. Robert Fortino.
