Active Ingredient: Acetylcysteine 200 mg
Pack Size: 20 capsules
Manufacturer: Sandoz

Description

ACC 200 mg contains acetylcysteine (N-acetylcysteine, NAC), a mucolytic medicine that helps thin and loosen thick mucus in the respiratory tract, making it easier to cough up and clear from the lungs. It is commonly used in respiratory conditions associated with excessive or sticky mucus.

Uses

• Acute and chronic bronchitis
• Productive (wet) cough with mucus
• Respiratory tract infections with thick secretions
• Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD)
• Bronchiectasis
• Certain cases of asthma with mucus retention (under medical supervision)

How It Works

Acetylcysteine breaks down the chemical bonds that make mucus thick and sticky, reducing its viscosity and helping the body remove it more effectively through coughing.

Dosage

• Adults and adolescents over 14 years: Typically 1 capsule 2–3 times daily, as directed by a healthcare professional.
• Capsules should be swallowed whole after meals with plenty of fluids.

Common Side Effects

• Nausea
• Stomach discomfort
• Diarrhea
• Headache
• Rarely, allergic reactions or bronchospasm in susceptible individuals

Important Precautions

• Drink plenty of water during treatment to help the mucus-thinning effect.
• Avoid use in children under the recommended age for this strength.
• Consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist beyond several days or worsen.
