Dose Adjustments
In patients under good control on 4 times a day dosing (i.e., patients whose only medication need is occasional (not more than twice a week) inhaled or oral beta-agonists, and who have no serious exacerbations with respiratory infections) a lower dose can be tried.
If use of lower doses is attempted, nedocromil should first be reduced to a 3 times a day regimen then, after several weeks on continued good control, to twice a day.
