Though people consume glutathione in the form of pills, you can try to increase its natural production in the body by consuming certain food items rich in amino acids
Clinical research using IV glutathione has shown good elevation in levels, but when the IV treatments stopped, glutathione decreased back to baseline levels
however, this phenomenon is blunted in in the diabetic state (Figure 1)

Key protective strategies include: Pre-treatment ophthalmologic evaluation : Establish baseline retinal status before initiating GLP-1 therapy, particularly in patients with diabetes duration exceeding 10 years or poor prior glycemic control Individualized medication titration : Consider a more gradual dose escalation approach to avoid precipitous drops in blood glucose for patients with advanced diabetic retinopathy, in coordination with ophthalmology care Appropriate monitoring : Discuss with your healthcare provider whether more frequent eye examinations are needed based on your individual risk factors and baseline retinal status Prompt reporting of visual symptoms : Contact your healthcare provider immediately if you experience sudden vision loss, new or dense floaters, flashing lights, a "curtain" over your vision, eye pain with vision changes, or any sudden vision disturbance Patients without pre-existing diabetic retinopathy can generally follow standard eye examination schedules and do not require additional ophthalmologic monitoring solely due to GLP-1 use

Finally, if you follow a specific diet, such as vegan or gluten-free, check the ingredient list to make sure the product is compatible
