Nalcrom is used to treat mastocytosis which is caused by the presence of too many mast cells in the body. It works by acting on the mast cells in the body to prevent them from releasing substances that cause symptoms of the disease, such as abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, flushing or itching of skin, or hives.
Before using Nalcrom tell your doctor if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or breastfeeding. Also let your doctor know if you have liver or kidney disease, and if you are taking any prescription or nonprescription medicine or dietary supplements. Inform your doctor if you are allergic to any of the ingredients that are present in Nalcrom.
