Descriptor acetilcisteína
Entry term(s) ácido mercaptúrico
Scope note: Derivado N-acetilo de la CISTEÍNA. Se emplea como mucolítico para reducir la viscosidad de las secreciones mucosas. Se ha demostrado también que tiene efectos antivíricos en pacientes con VIH debido a la inhibición de la estimulación vírica por intermediarios del oxígeno reactivo.
