Mechanism of Action

CROMOGLICIC ACID
Cromoglicate inhibits degranulation of mast cells, subsequently preventing the release of histamine and slow-reacting substance of anaphylaxis (srs-a), mediators of type i allergic reactions. Cromoglicate also may reduce the release of inflammatory leukotrienes. Cromoglicate may act by inhibiting calcium influx
TETRYZOLINE
Tetryzoline is an alpha-adrenergic agonist. Its primary action is the constriction of conjunctival blood vessels, which serves to decrease eye redness caused by minor ocular irritants
