Abstract
Background information and goals: N-acetylcysteine (NAC), an amino acid, has been used for a long time as a protection against contrast-induced nephropathy (CIN). NAC's efficacy is questionable due to conflicting study results and signs that it can alter blood creatinine levels without influencing the glomerular filtration rate. However, the impact of N-acetylcysteine on blood creatinine following therapy with current NAC preventive dosages has not been examined in a population at risk for CIN.
