What Causes Yeast Infection While On N-Acetyl Cysteine And Losartan?

I started taking 600 mg. of NAC (N-Acetyl-cysteine) and was wondering if a side effect could possibly be a yeast infection? I ve read everything I can find but not one thing about a yeast infection.I also take Losartin for high blood pressure so is that ok?

No.
Yeast infection is promoted by several different things such as sugar (diabetes), loss of immunity, loss of regular bacteria that suppress it, breakdown in the skin or skin moisture. I don't see these drugs doing any of those.
