ANS: A
Cough and a bad taste are the most common side effects associated with cromolyn sodium, and these effects can be decreased by drinking water before and after using the drug. The effects are not serious and do not warrant discussion with the provider. Stopping the medication abruptly can cause a rebound bronchospasm. This medication is not useful in acute bronchospasm.
