For Asthma, Maintenance "As with other comments - I took this from age 8 until last year, aged 59. No problems, just trouble-free allergy and asthma control throughout. Sanofi have now discontinued cromoglycate manufacture and supply worldwide. I am a retired pharmacist and have tried all the various options, steroids, LABAs, montelukast, but my shortness of breath is now making my life a misery. PLEASE will someone restart cromoglycate manufacture and market in the UK so I can get my life back!"

For Asthma, Maintenance "I used Intal for 25 years to control my asthma, and it worked wonderfully. I never had problems. Since it has been discontinued, I am on Symbicort and Singulair, and my health is unstable. I seem to suffer from every side effect of Symbicort. I wish someone would start making Intal again."

For Asthma, Maintenance "The Intal inhaler has worked the best for me. If using other inhalers, take them first and then take Intal. Intal, I believe, covers the mast cells, not allowing them to release histamine. It certainly is the best product of the inhalers. Those who have pure asthma must take Intal on a schedule, which will stop or cut down on their asthma attacks. It seems Intal has been taken off the market, and I have a poor quality of life because of it."

For Asthma, Maintenance "I use Chromolyn Sodium in my nebulizer, and it is a LIFE SAVER. I wish I could try the Intal inhaler since it's not convenient to use a nebulizer every day and when I travel. But for now, I will continue to use Chromolyn Sodium. I can't live without it."

For Asthma, Maintenance "I have taken Intal for 25 years with no negative side effects. I have severe respiratory distress from exposure to diesel fuel fumes and many other pollutants. My Intal Inhaler stops the reaction within a matter of minutes. Every other product I have used caused severe side effects."

For Asthma, Maintenance "Intal is the one drug that brought my asthma under control in 1974, when I was 18 years old. It pains me to know that I now must buy it from sources outside of North America."

For Asthma, Maintenance "Intal is currently available as a CFC-free inhaler from Sanofi Aventis. I have taken it for 40 years. It has no side effects and helps you get through colds very quickly."
