Glutathione levels are determined using a glutathione surrogate in HIV-positive patients to evaluate survival longevity and determine appropriate treatment. Low glutathione levels indicate a need for a glutathione enhancing supplement and a more aggressive therapeutic regimen, as well as diminishing drugs which may result in the reduction of available glutathione.
