Product Information:

NAC (N-Acetyl-Cysteine) 600mg

Ingredients:

N-Acetyl-Cysteine, Capsule Shell: Hydroxypropyl MethylCellulose, Anti-Caking Agents: (Magnesium Stearate, Silicon Dioxide).

Allergy Advice:

Although rigorous precautions are taken to prevent any cross-contamination, this product is manufactured in a facility that handles allergy-based materials.

Cautions:

Always consult your health practitioner before taking nutritional supplements, especially if you are taking medication or are under medical supervision.

Side Effects:

NAC can sometimes cause diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting and possibly dizziness. Only contact your GP if these side effects carry on for more than a few days or make you feel worse.

More rarely, patients may suffer an allergic reaction to NAC. This may cause a rash or possibly cause swelling in the mouth and throat making it difficult to breathe. If you have any of these effects, stop taking NAC and contact your GP as soon as possible.

Contraindications:

N-acetylcysteine is not known to affect any other medications.

However, do not take or use this medicine if you have previously had a reaction to NAC and take extra care if you have recently had a stomach/duodenal ulcer or have liver disease.

You should not take supplements as a substitute for a varied balanced diet or
healthy lifestyle.

Storage:

For best before and batch number see base. Store in a cool, dry place out of reach of children.

Dosage:

Barberras NAC capsules (600mg per capsule) have been formulated for use by humans but can be safely used by pets, with vets often recommending NAC supplementation. For use with pets we would recommend the following daily usage instructions:

Cats: 1/4 (150mg) capsule daily (in food)

Dogs: 1/4 (150mg) capsule for each 20 lbs (9kg) of body weight (in food).

To administer, it is best to mix the relevant weight of powder into the animals food but be aware NAC does have a Sulphur smell and this may be off putting for some animals.

Please Note: Dosage instructions on the bottle are for human use. Please use the dosage instructions above for use with dogs and cats.

Side Effects:

Although tolerated in the majority of people, some side effects of NAC in dogs and cats can include:

• Vomiting
• Hypersensitivity
• Nausea

Regardless, if your dog or cat does not
seem to tolerate it, or you feel something is wrong, get in touch with a vet straight away as some dogs and cats may be intolerant to it.

Contraindications:

NAC is contraindicated in dogs and cats that take activated charcoal, as this will decrease the absorption of NAC. If possible separate the administration of activated charcoal from the oral administration of NAC.

If you have any doubt about
administering nutritional supplements to your pet, specially if they have never
had them before, always consult with a veterinary professional beforehand.
