NAC significantly reduced the accumulation of ROS, lipid peroxidation and DNA oxidation by approximately 87%, 79%, and 77%, respectively, reducing oxidative stress and increasing antioxidants ( Controlled study of induced granulomas treated with NAC showed 2-fold increase in GSH, 3-fold increase in Interferon-, 2- and 3-fold reduction in tumor necrosis factor- (TNF-) at 8 and 15 days, reduced reactive oxygen ions and reduced necrosis as compared to controls ( 6.4 Summary of RCTs In the RIPENACTB trial, adjunct NAC treatment with 1,200 mg twice a day in hospitalized HIV/TB patients significantly reduced circulating lipid peroxidation (malondialdehyde (MDA) levels by approximately 40%50%) and increased antioxidant defenses, including glutathione (GSH, by approximately 30%40%), compared to baseline and the standard care group
