How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Acetylcysteine 10% Nasal Spray is a compounded medication specifically designed to treat a range of respiratory conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), bronchitis, and asthma. This liquid formulation is delivered in a spray form for direct administration into the nasal cavity. It functions by thinning the mucus in the lungs, facilitating its clearance and reducing inflammation in the airways. This can help alleviate symptoms such as coughing, wheezing, and shortness of breath.

The nasal spray is typically administered twice a day directly into each nostril. It is crucial to use the spray correctly to avoid potential side effects such as irritation or burning in the nose. Patients should avoid tilting their head back during application and refrain from blowing their nose for at least 15 minutes after using the spray.

While Acetylcysteine 10% Nasal Spray is generally well tolerated, some patients may experience side effects such as a burning sensation in the nose, sneezing, or a bitter taste in the mouth. If any of these side effects occur, it is recommended that the patient consult their doctor or pharmacist immediately.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
