. .... the pill form (I'm not sure about the liquid) of NAC can also be purchased at www.Puritan.com for a very reasonable price.

Many here order from there.

I had to stop NAC pills due to severe stomach pain. Be sure and take with food!

I was able to get the NAC from the GNC stores. I know the Acetylcystein does stink, but I guess it helps us.

CSher's point wasn't just price. The non-prescription pills are notcovered by insurance but are available reasonably and without the tasteof the liquid. You can also get pills formulated by a compoundingpharmacy. Some insurance does and some insurance doesn't cover that.> > > > >> > > > > Good morning,> > > > > I've been on 40mg prednisone for over a week now and didn'tmind> > how> > > > > it made me feel, like I was well again!

Jack... I'm sure glad to hear you are doing so well in your new place.

You didn't answer my last question...what's next for you...house hunting or staying put for awhile?

When you first started taking NAC, how long did it take for it to start working?

My doc said about six-weeks.
