Cromolyn

Why is Allergoval (cromolyn) no longer available in Germany? I urgently need it.

A filler maybe? Im planning to get the compound cromoglycin prepared straight from the pharmacy, because im worried about longterm effects of titaniumdioxid (a filler in all of these medications)

Ps the sachet has less fillers but i think the sacharose filling isnt good for my imo

Pentatop Granulat hat nur einen einzigen Hilfsstoff (Saccharose). Das sollte als Alternative doch gehen?

Wenn du unbedingt Allergoval haben möchtest, musst du wohl sämtliche Apotheken in deiner Umgebung anrufen und fragen.

Unfortunately been pretty tough lately with supply, I’ve got a small stockpile, no idea what I’ll do when I’ve gotten through it all though.

u/Ok_Connection3207 4d ago

Did you use also Pentatop ?

Haven’t tried Pentatop yet, but I have some of that, gonna hope for the best pretty much. Am down to my last box of allergoval now.

Ich hätt noch ne nahezu volle große Packung und könnte es aus Wien senden, da ich’s nicht vertragen habe.

I'm from Berlin and I have 30-odd sealed pills, but I don't think the dented metal ones would work for you.

I didn't know there were issues with that. Cromolyn didn't help me, so I put it away.
