Acetylcysteine exerts mucolytic action through its free sulfhydryl group which opens up the disulfide bonds in the mucoproteins, thus lowering mucous viscosity. It is a precursor of glutathione which serves as a substrate for the synthesis of glutathione in the body. In paracetamol toxicity, acetylcysteine acts as a hepatoprotective agent by restoring hepatic glutathione, serving as a glutathione substitute, and enhancing the nontoxic sulfate conjugation of paracetamol.
