Change in osmolarity of disodium cromoglycate solution and protection against exercise-induced bronchospasm in children with asthma.
It has been suggested that osmolarity and/or nebulizer output may affect the protective effects of disodium cromoglycate (DSCG) in asthma. The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of osmolarity of the DSCG solution on exercise-induced bronchospasm (EIB) in children with bronchial asthma. A jet nebulizer was used for DSCG inhalation in Study 1 and an ultrasonic nebulizer in Study 2. T...
متن کاملDisodium cromoglycate in the prevention of induced asthma.
In 13 patients with allergic asthma disodium cromoglycate protected fully only two from an allergen-induced asthmatic attack.Inhalation of disodium cromoglycate did not improve lung function in five patients with long-standing chronic asthma.Previous clinical trials do not show convincing evidence that this drug improves bronchial asthma in a high percentage of cases, but it seems to help a sma...
متن کاملEffects of Sodium Cromoglycate on Iranian Asthmatic Subjects Without Exposure to any Bronchoconstrictor agent
Cromolyn sodium, a mast cell stabilizing agent, provides an immediate protective effect against the exercise-induced bronchoconstriction while being used before the exercise. However, cromolyn is ineffective in reversing asthmatic bronchospasm; it is used as a maintenance therapy and has a prophylactic role in chronic asthma. The purpose of this study was to determine the extent of change...

متن کاملThe inhibition of histamine release from guinea-pig lung by compound I.C.I. 74917 and isoprenaline.
Compounds that increase tissue concentrations of cyclic AMP inhibit the release of histamine from sensitized tissues when they are challenged with antigen. It has been proposed that the anti-asthmatic agent disodium cromoglycate exerts its anti-allergic properties by inhibiting cyclic AMP phosphodiesterase. This hypothesis was based on experiments where it was shown that the inhibition of antig...
