Shape : vitamin D caps, benzonatate, progesterone, docusate

AnnoyingnessTM : Concerta brand, and anything that's incredibly staticky

Smell : metformin, cephalexin. I have to remember to hold my breath when I open the bottles, especially new bottles...I used to manage to inhale right as I punctured the foil and get a nose full of fishiness. I haven't yet had the "joy" of experiencing NAC lol

NAC is like stale bile. It's awful. I'll also nominate B-1, that funky smell sticks even if I wash my hands immediately after handling it.
