Will a tolerance build to NAC's glutamate reducing effect?

I read that it induces the release of glutamate into the extracellular space where Group II mGluRs are located via the cystine-glutamate antiporter. And that these receptors are negative regulators of glutamate release.
Source from where I read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cystine#Biological_transport
So would there be tolerance to this effect?

It's hard to say for sure. I would imagine there is some tolerance. However, it might allosterically modulate and maintain balance.
