At a glance
Sodium Cromoglycate + Xylometazoline Nasal Spray is used for the prophylaxis and treatment of allergic rhinitis accompanied by nasal congestion. Sodium Cromoglycate stabilizes mast cells and Xylometazoline reduces nasal swelling.
Indications
- Allergic rhinitis (hay fever and perennial rhinitis) with nasal congestion
Pharmacology
Sodium Cromoglycate prevents the release of type-1 allergic reaction mediators (histamine, SRS-A) from sensitized mast cells after antigen-antibody union. Xylometazoline stimulates alpha-adrenergic receptors, constricting nasal mucosal blood vessels, reducing swelling and congestion, and making breathing easier.
