Summary

N-acetylcysteine (NAC), known to have mucolytic and antioxidant effects, is widely used to treat respiratory diseases and manage post-surgery pulmonary complications. It is also administered as a treatment for acetaminophen addiction and a preventive measure for contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). While NAC inhalation is commonly used for mucolytic purpose for various respiratory disease because it has relatively less side effects compared to oral or injection administrations, it is more used as a part of allopathy than as a major therapy. As a result, there is neither enough relevant clinical data nor specific reference in treatment guidelines. Therefore, this study aims to evaluate the overall treatment effectiveness and safety of NAC inhalation compared with standard treatment, and to perform follow-up observations on administration cases, patient characteristics, and adverse events of NAC inhalation used in real clinical settings.
