Pharmacological action

PHARMACODYNAMICS

Acetylcysteine ​​is a derivative of the amino acid cysteine. It has a mucolytic effect, facilitates sputum discharge due to a direct effect on the rheological properties of sputum. The action is due to the ability to break the disulfide bonds of mucopolysaccharide chains and cause depolymerization of mucoproteins of sputum, which leads to a decrease in the viscosity of sputum. The drug remains active in the presence of purulent sputum. It has an antioxidant effect, based on the ability of its reactive sulfhydryl groups (SH-groups) to bind to oxidizing radicals and, thus, neutralize them. In addition, acetylcysteine ​​promotes the synthesis of glutathione, an important component of the antioxidant system and chemical detoxification of the body. The antioxidant effect of acetylcysteine ​​increases the protection of cells from the damaging effects of free radical oxidation, which is characteristic of an intense inflammatory reaction. With the prophylactic use of acetylcysteine, there is a decrease in the frequency and severity of exacerbations of bacterial etiology in patients with chronic bronchitis and cystic fibrosis.

PHARMACOKINETICS

Absorption is high. It is rapidly metabolized in the liver with the formation of a pharmacologically active metabolite - cysteine, as well as diacetylcysteine, cystine and mixed disulfides. Oral bioavailability is 10% (due to the presence of a pronounced effect of "first passage" through the liver). The time to reach maximum plasma concentration is 1-3 hours. Communication with plasma proteins is 50%. It is excreted by the kidneys in the form of inactive metabolites (inorganic sulfates, diacetylcysteine). The half-life (T1 / 2) is about 1 hour, impaired liver function leads to an extension of T1 / 2 to 8 hours. It penetrates the placental barrier. Data on the ability of acetylcysteine ​​to cross the blood-brain barrier and excreted in breast milk are not available.
