NAC is illegal in the USA now. Thank you FDA.

They seems to have banned products claiming to cure hangovers https://www.fda.gov/food/cfsan-constituent-updates/fda-sends... but Nac is still available. Amazon had an overly broad interpretation of those letters but it appears to be available there : https://www.iherb.com/pr/Now-Foods-NAC-600-mg-250-Veggie-Cap...

Are you talking about N-Acetyl Cysteine? Something like this?

When did it become illegal? I've used it before and was unaware of that.

I've used it before as well.

Here is a story about the FDA and NAC: https://www.naturalproductsinsider.com/regulatory/crn-petiti...

Honestly, I haven't used NAC in ~2 years. Have just heard about the drama from friends.
