Acetylcysteine, also known as ''N''-acetylcysteine or ''N''-acetyl-''L''-cysteine (NAC), is a medication used to treat paracetamol (acetaminophen) overdose and to loosen thick mucus such as in cystic fibrosis or chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.drugs.com/monograph/acetylcysteine.html )〕 It is available by intravenous, by mouth, or inhaled as a mist.〔
Common side effects include nausea and vomiting when taken by mouth. The skin may occasionally become red and itchy with either form. A non immune type of anaphylaxis may also occur. It appears to be safe in pregnancy. It works by increasing glutathione levels and binding with the toxic break down products of paracetamol.〔
Acetylcysteine was initially patented in 1960 and licensed for use in 1968. It is on the World Health Organization's List of Essential Medicines, most important medication needed in a basic health system. It is available as a generic medication and is not very expensive. ==Uses==
