Product Description

Description of Acetylcysteine Capsules 200mg
Acetylcysteine, also known as N-acetylcysteine (NAC), is a medication derived from the amino acid L-cysteine. It is a potent antioxidant and mucolytic agent that helps thin and loosen mucus in the airways. 
Quick Breakdown of Acetylcysteine's Structure 
Acetylcysteine is made by introducing an acetyl group into the amino acid cysteine. The chemical structure of Acetylcysteine allows it to break disulfide bonds in mucus, making it less viscous. 

Indication
Symptomatic treatment:
A. Chronic bronchitis: To decrease the risk and severity of exacerbations.
B. Cystic fibrosis: In case of cystic fibrosis, oral treatment, due to its greater flexibility, can be used in addition to aerosol treatment.
C. Acute respiratory tract conditions: To thin purulent, thick mucus that forms in respiratory tract infections.
