The frequency of adverse events in patients using cromolyn sodium remains unclear. Adverse events also vary depending on the administration route. The ophthalmic solution is associated with transient eye burning upon administration, and eye dryness, puffiness, irritation, itchiness, rash, and styes may be seen. Adverse events reported with the cromolyn sodium nasal spray were nasal congestion, sneezing, nasal itching, nosebleeds, rhinoconjunctivitis, and headaches. Adverse events reported with the inhalation solution were throat irritation and hoarseness, esophagitis, laryngeal and pharyngeal edema, drowsiness, dizziness, bronchial irritation, pulmonary infiltrates, and cough.

Drugs that are used to treat asthma.
DescriptionSodium cromoglycate is the sodium salt and common market from of cromoglicic acid, which is a synthetic compound, and as a mast cell stabilizer. It is capable of inhibiting the antigen-induced bronchospasms, and thus being used to treat the asthma and allergic rhinitis. It can also be applied as an ophthalmic solution for the treatment of conjunctivitis and systemic mastocytosis and ulcerative colitis. It is capable of inhibiting the degranulation of mast cells, further preventing the release of histamine and slow-reacting substance of anaphylaxis (SRS-A), the mediators of type I allergic reaction. It is also capable of inhibiting the release of inflammatory leukotrienes and inhibiting calcium influx.
DescriptionDisodium cromoglycateis a relatively nontoxic agent used for the long-term prevention of many types of asthma. It has no bronchodilator properties and is used in the prophylaxis of asthma. It does not play a role in the treatment of acute asthmatic attacks including severe asthma.
UsesChromone complex which blocks mast cell degranulation
Usesantiasthmatic, antiallergy
UsesAnti Asthamatic
General DescriptionCromolyn sodium, disodium 1,3-bis(2-carboxychromon-5-yloxy)-2-hydroxypropane (Intal), isa hygroscopic, white, hydrated crystalline powder that is solublein water (1:10). It is tasteless at first but leaves a veryslightly bitter aftertaste. The pK of cromolyn is 2. It is availableas a solution for a nebulizer, an aerosol spray, a nasal solution,an ophthalmic solution, and an oral concentrate.Nebulized and aerosol cromolyn has been used for prophylacticmanagement of bronchial asthma and prevention ofexercise-induced bronchospasm. Cromolyn nasal solution isused for the prevention and treatment of allergic rhinitis, andoral concentrate is used to treat the histaminic symptomsof mastocytosis (diarrhea, flushing, headaches, vomiting, urticaria,abdominal pain, nausea, and itching). Topical cromolyn(eye drops) is used to treat allergic conjunctivitis andkeratitis. In the treatment of asthma, cromolyn efficacy is manifestedby decreased severity of clinical symptoms, or need for concomitant therapy, or both. Long-term use is justified if thedrug significantly reduces the severity of asthma symptoms;permits a significant reduction in, or elimination of, steroiddosage; or improves management of those who have intolerableside effects to sympathomimetic agents or methylxanthines.For cromolyn to be effective, it must be administered atleast 30 minutes prior to antigen challenge and administered atregular intervals (see dosing information that follows). Wheninhaled, the powder does produce irritation in some patients.Also, overuse of cromolyn can result in tolerance.

Cromolyn sodium is poorly absorbed and is low in toxicity. No severe toxicity reactions have been reported, and a specific toxic dose has not been established. Research verifying the efficacy or safety of cromolyn sodium is insufficient regarding use in pediatric patients younger than 2 years. However, acute life-threatening reactions have been reported.
