    Where there not warnings about high dosage

    Very high doses of NAC have been shown in one study in animals to have the potential to do damage to the heart and lungs.

    S-nitrosothiols signal hypoxia-mimetic vascular pathology. Journal of Clinical Investigation 2007 Sep;117(9): 2592-601. Accessed December 12, 2007. PMID 17786245

    Similar effects on the lungs have been seen in humans at more moderate doses.

    Effect of N-acetyl-cysteine on the hypoxic ventilatory response and erythropoietin production: linkage between plasma thiol redox state and O(2) chemosensitivity." Blood 2002 Mar 1;99(5):1552-5. PMID 11861267

    If you think that your brand is well trusted, you should follow their prescription to avoid any danger on your part. Since, L-glutathione is an important component of the body's primary antioxidant defense system.
