Exercise‐induced arterial hypoxemia (EIAH) has been observed in highly trained endurance athletes during near maximal exercise, which may be influenced by a histamine‐mediated inflammatory response at the pulmonary capillary‐alveolar membrane. In order to test this hypothesis, we examined whether the mast cell stabilizer nedocromil sodium (NS) and H1‐receptor antagonist diphenhydramine HCL (DH) would ameliorate EIAH and mitigate the drop in arterial oxyhemoglobin saturation (SaO2) during intensive exercise.
