Indications & Clinical Uses

Cromolyn Sodium 100mg/5ml-Mylan is a mast cell stabilizer used to manage allergic and inflammatory conditions. It is primarily indicated for the following:

  • Asthma: Prevents the release of inflammatory mediators, reducing the frequency and severity of asthma attacks.
  • Allergic Rhinitis: Helps manage symptoms of allergic rhinitis by stabilizing mast cells and preventing the release of histamine.
  • Exercise-Induced Bronchospasm: Used to prevent bronchospasm triggered by physical exertion.
  • Mastocytosis: Treats symptoms associated with mastocytosis, a condition characterized by the accumulation of mast cells in tissues.

How It Works

  • Cromolyn Sodium works by inhibiting the degranulation of mast cells, which prevents the release of inflammatory mediators such as histamine and leukotrienes. This action helps to manage allergic and inflammatory conditions by reducing the body's immune response to allergens. Cromolyn Sodium indirectly blocks calcium ions from entering the mast cell, thereby preventing the release of these mediators.
