- I've just started cromolyn treatments (3 x day) in an effort
- to prevent or minimize the severity of the attacks. Has
- anyone else used cromolyn in preventing exercise-induced
- asthma? What are the risks/side effects of this drug?
-
- Also, pardon my ignorance, but what are the risks of inhaled
- steroidal drugs in general? (I know very little about
- this...)
-
- Thanks very much. (Please send mail to me, please, and I'll
- summarize with a post.)
