Okay I bought the generic Zantac...wish I knew how much the mice were given so I could take equivalent dose. Cromolyn sodium I find as Nasalcrom—is that the only method of dosage? I worry about a nasal spray (thinking of Dristan) and being addicted.
I tried either Zantac or Tagament at one time and believed I had side-effects from it. Now that I think back, I’m not so sure. I’d have to try again.
If you google up Nasalcrom, it’s supposed to be good for nasal symptoms but not supposed to get into the blood stream.
I don’t know how to get other forms of it without a prescription.
I think I tried Nasalcrom once and the smell was so bad I passed on it. It was like spraying my nose with a liquid plastic bag. It didn’t feel that way, it smelled that way.
However, I’m to the point that I’ll give it a try.
My symptoms came back with a vengeance yesterday which landed me in the doctor’s office for breathing treatment. It was very windy out and I’m very allergic to whatever blooms at this time of year. Add the food to that and there can be cross reactions. I feel like cr@p right now and am wondering if I’ll need ANOTHER trip to the doctor today.
Anti-histamines are not the same as mast cell stabilizers, although they may help for someone where allergies is the trigger for mast cell activation as opposed to irritable mast cells.
I hope it works out for you.
