Hi Ogal, welcome.

A prescription is not required for NAC—it is considered a dietary supplement and is available OTC at many outlets and online.

I'm not familiar with either pill form or effervescent tablets; I am familiar with bulk form and capsules—the latter of which I've taken for years as an antioxidant and to help protect liver & kidneys, though it has many many other uses.

As with anything/everything else we ingest, it has its risks as well as benefits, so please investigate thoroughly, and run it by your doctor/pharmacist before trying.

Acetylcysteine

N - ACETYL CYSTEINE
