I don't think they get into the system that fast - I believe that taken daily over time they have a lasting impact on the mucus. For example, if I stop Mucinex, I don't notice the thickening mucus for a day or two. With NAC, I ran out last winter, and noticed a difference after 4 days.

The NAC is a clear (gelatin?) capsule which dissolves quickly, excess water helps a lot. Mucinex likely takes longer. Between my sinuses and lungs I need all the help I can get. Room temperature water easier to drink than refrigerated. According to Ayurvedic medicine, room temperature water is healthier for the gullet/gut than cold water. We loose fluids at night through respiration.
According to the label, Mucinex dosing one tablet every four hours, so I doubt I get carryover to next day. If I do, I'll take it!
