Hi Terri -
I asked that at my Co-op. They said they received notice from their distributor that 3 companies stopped offering it due to the FDA challenge. It seems they are worried because they also produce regulated meds and don't want to get in a fight. Others seem to have decided the FDA is all bark and no bite on this matter.
I have still baan able to find it with a little lookinng.

I read an article that said to beware of these ‘fillers’ in NAC products.

Beware: Harmful Fillers
Magnesium Stearate

This cheap filler is used to help bind ingredients together and lubricate the supplement so it doesn’t gum up when it is run through the manufacturing machines. Magnesium stearate adds no nutritional value and can become toxic to your system.

Titanium Dioxide

Widely relied upon in supplement manufacturing as a coloring agent and binding mineral, titanium dioxide can compromise the health of your immune system. Low-quality health supplements typically include this filler.
