Comparison of the antioxidative action of the two N-acetylcystein containing products: Propomucil® and Fluimucil® in a group of smokers who have seasonal coughing problems

Abstract

Obradović et al., Comparison of the antioxidative action of the two N-acetylcystein containing products: Propomucil® and Fluimucil® ...

The Comparative Analysis of the Impact of N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine and its Combination with Propolis on Quality-of-Life in Patients with Acute Bronchitis

“…Obradovic et al, demonstrated significant antioxidant protection from NAC-P when compared with NAC. 12 In our study, potential confounding factors were limited as the two groups of patients (NAC and NAC-P) were not significantly different for variables: age, smoking status, cough status, expectoration, sputum appearance, sputum volume, microbiological sputum test, and CRP values. However, our study possessed several limitations.…”

“…11 Two studies indicated the importance of NAC with Propolis (NAC-P) in antioxidant protection and respiratory symptom reduction in pediatric patients with adenoid hypertrophy. 12,13 Propolis possesses antibacterial, antiviral, and antifungal effects. Unsurprisingly it is widely used as a treatment for upper respiratory tract infections.…”
