    AbstractThis paper examined the effect of inhaled prostaglandin I2 at a dose of 5-10 microgram/ml on vascular resistance in the treatment of pulmonary hypertension, for its local benefits and lack of effect on systemic vascular resistances. The treatment was also combined with inhaled milrinone at a dose of 1 mg/ml, given that the mechanisms of action of the two drugs are different and possibly complementary. Inhaling both drugs might be an effective approach to treating pulmonary hypertension.
