Top picks by evidence
- Low evidence5 studies
Across 5 studies, 2 reported beneficial effects of N-acetyl cysteine on platelet recovery, with moderate to large effect sizes in specific clinical populations, while 3 studies showed neutral findings. The most robust evidence comes from an RCT in critically ill adults using linezolid, where NAC accelerated platelet recovery (adjusted HR 3.88, p=0.011). Effects were observed in clinical populations with thrombocytopenia, with a median study duration of 365 days, though dose data is limited.
