In liver disease, this drug regulates liver glutathione levels to prevent liver damage and the accumulation of cirrhosis-related lipids outside the liver. In depression, it influences serotonin levels in the brain, which plays a role in communication between brain cells and mood regulation. In osteoarthritis, it stimulates cartilage production and reduces inflammatory mediators.
