Overdosage?
No overdosing symptoms are known. If in doubt, consult your doctor.

Have you forgotten to use it?

As a general rule: Pay particular attention to conscientious dosing for infants, small children and older people. If in doubt, ask your doctor or pharmacist about any effects or precautionary measures.

How does the ingredient of the medicine work?

The active ingredient protects against an allergic reaction of the mucous membranes by stabilizing the outer shell of certain cells, so-called mast cells. If foreign substances such as pollen or animal dander enter the body and attach themselves to the envelope of a mast cell, it opens and a large number of the body's own messenger substances are released. These messenger substances activate the body's own defense mechanisms and as a result the affected mucous membranes become inflamed. Cromoglicic acid prevents this leakage.
However, the effect can only be used preventively; an acute attack cannot be treated with the substance.
