Le cromoglycate est utilisé dans la prévention des crises d'asthme lorsqu'un mécanisme allergique est impliqué. Il peut aussi s'avérer utile dans la rhinite allergique. Il est plus particulièrement efficace chez les enfants. C'est un moyen préventif; il ne possède pas d'efficacité durant une crise, vu qu'il n'est pas broncho-dilatateur. 2, record 1, French, - cromoglicate

Le cromoglycate disodique (DSCG) utilisé depuis 1970 environ reste l'agent préventif le plus puissant. Son mode d'action intime n'est pas encore complètement élucidé, mais on sait qu'il agit comme stabilisateur de membrane : il inhibe la dégranulation des mastocytes et empêche de ce fait la libération dans le sang des médiateurs primaires de la réaction allergique (histamine et SRS-A en particulier). 1, record 2, French, - stabilisateur%20de%20membrane
