This article reviews experimental and clinical data on the efficacy, safety, mode of action, and therapeutic indications for cromolyn and related inhalational compounds; ketotifen; alpha-adrenergic blockers; calcium-channel blockers; nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs; and such diverse agents as immunosuppressive drugs, ether, alcohol, ascorbic acid, and other nutritional substances.
