I'm wondering if the Ethiglo Glutathione pills, recommended by my dermatologist for pigmentation and skin lightening, are actually effective. Or should I consider using Glutone 1000 instead?

Glutathione pill (Ethiglo) along with vitamin C is commonly used for pigmentation issues. Ethiglo is effective in improving skin tone and reducing pigmentation. Based on your dermatologist's recommendation, you can start with Ethiglo for better results. The usual dosage for Ethiglo is 500mg once daily.
