Pharmacological properties
Acetylcysteine ((r) -2-acetamide-3-mercaptopropanoic acid) is a bronchosecretory, mucolytic and expectorant agent with moderate anti-inflammatory activity. acetylcysteine thins phlegm, increases its volume, facilitates excretion, promotes expectoration. the mechanism of action is due to the ability of its sulfhydryl groups to break the disulfide bonds of acidic mucopolysaccharides of sputum, which leads to a decrease in the viscosity of mucus. exhibits a stimulating effect on mucosal cells, the secretion of which lyses fibrin. the preparation also has anti-inflammatory activity due to the inhibition of free radical processes, which is a pathogenetic link in the development of acute and chronic inflammation in the tissues of the respiratory tract. acetylcysteine promotes the synthesis of glutathione - the most important link in the intracellular antioxidant defense system, and also promotes detoxification processes.
When taken orally, it is well absorbed in the digestive tract. During the initial passage through the liver, it is deacetylated with the formation of cysteine, which leads to a relatively low bioavailability of acetylcysteine (about 10%). The maximum concentration in blood plasma is reached within 1-3 hours after administration. Plasma protein binding is about 50%. Penetrates the placental barrier. The half-life from blood plasma is 1 hour, with cirrhosis of the liver, its duration increases to 8 hours. It is metabolized in the liver. It is excreted from the body mainly by the kidneys in the form of inactive metabolites (inorganic sulfates, diacetylcysteine), a small part is eliminated unchanged through the intestines.
