@ sueinmn I find the combination of NAC and long acting mucinex to be effective, more effective than NAC alone.

I would be curious to read about concerns about NAC stimulating abnormal cell growth. @minute22 would it be possible to post a link?

Here’s one article about it. I asked my pulmonologist about this connection and he wasn’t aware but also it’s not something that he recommends. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9563555/#:~:text=Due%20to%20its%20antioxidant%20mechanism,of%20heme%20oxygenase%20%5B88%5D.

I also use the combination, and have for several years. The NAC has helpful to prevent my overactive response to all inflammatory agents.
