Effect of disodium cromoglycate on exercise-induced asthma. 1968

S E Davies

In eight patients with exercise-induced asthma, disodium cromoglycate was found to produce a definite inhibition of the post-exercise fall in forced expiratory volume in one second. This effect may be part of the cause for the subjective improvement experienced with this drug.
