Market Report Eye Allergy Medicine Approved Compliments of the Morrow County Grain Growers According to a recent report in P h a rm a cist’s Letter, a new prescription medicine has been approved for eye allergies. The approved medicine is crom olyn. The brand name for this medi cine is C rolom . It is made by Bausch & Lomb. May June July Aug. Sept. According to the report, this is good news for physicians who previously had treated eye aller gies with another cromolyn prod uct that eventually was taken off the market. C rolom is approved for a severe type of allergy that is referred to as vernal k era to conjunctivitis. The report indi cated that cromolyn probably also will be used by certain eye specialists for prevention of itchy, watery eyes, a common condition with eye allergies. Cromolyn sodium stabilizes mast cells in the body, thereby preventing release of histamine and other substances that cause watery eyes, sneezing, and other allergy symptoms. This com pound usually is less effective after an allergic response is al ready under way. Cromolyn is, therefore, used to prevent aller gies. Prescription products on the market containing cromolyn in clude a nasal spray for seasonal allergic rhinitis and several prod ucts (a powder inside a capsule, an aerosol, and a solution) for oral inhalation in persons with asthma.
