When you first open a bottle of NAC, it may have a sulfur-like smell. I just leave the bottle open for a few days and shake it now and then and most of the odor goes away. The capsule size is very reasonable and they are tasteless assuming you swallow it whole and don't bite into it.

When you first open a bottle of NAC, it may have a sulfur-like smell. I just leave the bottle open for a few days and shake it now and then and most of the odor goes away. The capsule size is very reasonable and they are tasteless assuming you swallow it whole and don't bite into it.
This is an instant release capsule, and because I had always used NAC Sustain, I had no idea how bad the ensuing nausea would be from 500mg all at once.
If you are one of the rare people who does not experience nausea from NAC, this is perfect for you. Otherwise, change your search and buy the more expensive, timed-release product.
A clarification for anyone who thought the "smelled like sulfur" review was helpful: NAC is supposed to smell like sulfur. Perfectly normal, no reason to discard.
So, I've been trialling a statin (atorvastatin --- generic Lipitor) for a few months now. After the first few weeks, one of my liver markers (ALT, specifically) had risen from normal to just above the upper limit of normal. Not enough for my doctor to take me off the statin, but a meaningful move and something to watch. I began taking the Jarrow Formulas NAC a couple months later, one capsule a day, for a reason unrelated to the statin. About a month after beginning NAC, I had another follow-up appointment with the doctor, and of course he ordered the liver work-up again. To my surprise, this time my ALT had fallen all the back to the middle of normal range. This is with all that additional time taking the statin, and even with a slightly higher frequency (I had been taking it five days a week, but had upped it to a full seven).
Could it be that my liver had just adjusted to the statin over that time, and that my ALT would have returned to normal regardless of the NAC supplementation? I suppose it's possible...like I said, this was not a controlled study. But everything I've read would tend to make me think this is NOT the case, and that rather, the liver-protecting ability of NAC was showing through.
Just one man's observation.
