3	too thin mucous secretions	Anxiety out the roof! It took me awhile to figure out this was what caused it. Did not happen at first, but after awhile, felt like I would jump out of my skin. Also nausea, diarrhea, loss of appetite. Headache.	It did help to keep my sinuses draining. But the anxiety is not worth it. I used to take only 300 mg day, and possibly I can return to this dose, and still benefit, once my body gets calmed back down. For now I had to stop taking it.	F	62	30 days 500 mg 2X day	7/21/2018
5	cough result of post nasal drip	none	It is a powerful antioxidant and mucolytic. I used countless antihistaminics to cure cough. None come near acetylcysteine. I breathe much easily now.	M	35	30 days 600mg 2X day	2/17/2011
