| abstract |
The invention provides the use of mast cell stabilizers, which composition inhibits excess chemical release such as the mediator of laminitis, histamine, from mast cells for the prevention and/or treatment of laminitis. Mast cell stabilizers can be administered by way of inhalation, oral, subcutaneous, intramuscular or topical. Mast cell stabilizers may be administered before an onset of laminitis or administered during a laminitis attack to halt the stress response of laminitis. |
