It is a mucous dissolving and anti-inflammatory agent. Trials have shown it reduces the frequency of acute worsening episodes and improved the quality of life of those like us who suffer from Bronchiectasis.

I have been on it since the end of April with no problems. In fact I am seeing an improvement I attribute to now using 7% saline and NAC.
