NAC does it work?

Do you mean oral or inhaled? My pulmonologist recently gave me a prescription for the inhaled version as my last CT did not show improvement on mucus impaction despite regular AC. I am on the fence about it and would be interested in hearing about others use of it (again, inhaled version, not oral).

I’m wondering about the oral right now 600mg. That’s the usual strength that I’ve heard. But would be curious to hear about the inhaled version as well.

Bayarea58, can you share what inhaled version prescription your doctor gave you. I was given nacetylcysteine nebulizer 6 ml but I cannot use it- I cough bad during and after the inhalation.

Have you tried to nebulize albuterol or levalbuterol solutions? I have mucus plugs on my scans. I feel the nebbing levalbuterol seems to work better to get mucus out.
