SYSTEMIC ADMINISTRATION OF LIPOSOMAL REDUCED GLUTATHIONE FOR THE DECORPORATION OF RADIOACTIVE MATERIALS AND NON-RADIOACTIVE MERCURY

摘要

The invention is for the combination and related methods of liposomal reduced glutathione in oral, inhaled, or intravenous, or glutathione inhaled or intravenous, to ameliorate the effects of exposure to or ingestion of radiation or radioactive materials, as treatment to ameliorate the toxic effects of radiation exposure or ingestion and to facilitate the decorporation of radioactive materials such as Co-60. The invention may also be used in conjunction with a decorporation agent such as DTPA, EDTA, DMPS or penicillamine to ameliorate the toxic effects of exposure or ingestion of radioactive agents or other toxic metals.
