Cromolyn Sodium is the sodium salt form of cromolyn, a mast cell stabilizer with anti-inflammatory activity. Cromolyn sodium probably interferes with the antigen-stimulated calcium transport across the mast cell membrane, thereby inhibiting mast cell release of histamine, leukotrienes, and other substances that cause hypersensitivity reactions. Cromolyn sodium also inhibits eosinophil chemotaxis. Its therapeutic use is listed as anti-asthmatic agents. The directory classifies it as a commercial API with a synthetic source/manufacturing origin. Other names for this substance include Gastrocrom, Lomudas, Intal nebulizer and Disodium Cromoglycate. Its PubChem CID is 27503.
