➡️ Question:
You are called to administer acetylcysteine to a 66-year-old female patient. This medication can be helpful in treating which of the following conditions?
A. Bronchospasm
B. Mucous plugs
C. Pleural effusion
D. Pulmonary hypertension
 
Do you know the answer? Let's break it down.

First and foremost, to get this one right, you simply just needed to know that acetylcysteine is another name for the drug: Mucomyst.
 
And of course, Mucomyst helps to break down the disulfide bonds of mucus which thins and helps mobilize secretions. This is definitely useful in patients with mucus plugs. Mucomyst is not used to treat bronchospasm so we can rule that one out right away. In fact, it can actually make the patient's bronchoconstriction worse, which is why you always want to administer a bronchodilator when Mucomyst is given.
