Even though it is a dietary supplement (not a "drug"), glutathione can potentially interact with a few substances. Some of the substances that may lead to glutathione interactions include:
>Acetaminophen (Tylenol and many other non-prescription and prescription medications) The body uses glutathione to detoxify a toxic metabolite of acetaminophen. Glutathione is "used up" in the chemical reaction, and it is possible that taking acetaminophen (especially in large doses) could counteract the benefits of glutathione.
>Alcohol
A chronic use of alcohol depletes the body's glutathione and could potentially counteract the benefits of glutathione.
