Effectiveness
How Tilade Affects PatientsNedocromil is a medicine that helps to reduce inflammation in the bronchial airways. It has been shown to decrease symptoms of asthma when triggered by allergens, and can also help to reduce sensitivity in the airways.
How Tilade works in the bodyNedocromil works to reduce inflammation associated with asthma by blocking the release of inflammatory substances like histamine, prostaglandin D2, and leukotrienes c4. It does this by inhibiting the activation of different types of cells in the bronchial tree. Nedocromil also works to block nerve reflexes and the release of sensory neuropeptides, like substance P and neurokinin A, which can cause bronchoconstriction. It does not have any effect on bronchodilators, antihistamines, or corticosteroids.
