HOW IT WORKS

Methylene blue acts as an electron cycler within the mitochondrial respiratory chain, accepting and donating electrons to support cellular energy production. In clinical use, it is a prescription medication with a long history — applications are determined by the provider's assessment of the patient's history, medications, and treatment goals.

BEFORE YOU START

Unmistakable vivid blue color — will transiently discolor urine and mucous membranes. Requires provider review of existing medications due to serotonergic interactions. One of the oldest synthetic pharmaceutical compounds in clinical use, with a record spanning over a century. Dose and formulation — 10 mg/mL or 20 mg/mL — selected based on individual patient history and treatment objectives.
