Attenuation of exercise induced asthma by nedocromil sodium and sodium cromoglycate
Abstract
A randomized double blind cross over trial to compare nedocromil sodium and sodium cromoglycate with placebo in the prevention of exercise induced asthma was conducted. Twenty asthmatics received nedocromil sodium, sodium cromoglycate or placebo via metered dose inhalers on successive days 30 minutes before exercise in a randomized order. Nedocromil sodium and sodium cromoglycate gave sufficient protection (P less than 0.05) compared to placebo as assessed by the reduction in the maximum percentage fall in the forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1). The protective effect of nedocromil sodium and sodium cromoglycate varied in individuals.
