BACKGROUND AND AIMS Ischemic hepatitis (IH) following acute variceal bleed (AV carries an ominous prognosis. N-Acetylcysteine (NAC), a potent anti-oxidant, may prevent IH by improving tissue oxygen delivery and improving hepatic hypoxia. METHODS Consecutive cirrhotics with AVB were prospectively randomized to receive either standard of care (SOC) plus NAC intravenously for 72 h(at 150 mg/kg/h for 1 h followed by 12.5 mg/kg/h for 4 h, followed by 6.25 mg/kg for 67 h) (Group A, n = 107) or SOC alone (Group B, n = 107).
