The present disclosure relates to compositions and combinations comprising one or more insulin(s) and one or more vasoactive agent(s), and use thereof for increasing subcutaneous insulin absorption and/or treating diabetes and/or treating or preventing hyperglycemia or complications in a patient in need thereof.

The present invention belongs to the field of medicine, and relates to use of cannabidiol (CBD) in the treatment of pulmonary arterial hypertension. The CBD can be used as the only active ingredient or combined with other active ingredients to prepare a medicament for treating pulmonary arterial hypertension. Specifically, the present invention relates to use of any one selected from (1) to (3) in the preparation of a medicament for treating and/or preventing pulmonary arterial hypertension: (1) CBD, (2) a plant extract containing the CBD; and preferably, the plant extract is a cannabis extract, and (3) a pharmaceutical composition containing the CBD and one or more pharmaceutically acceptable adjuvants. In the present invention, upon experimental researches, it has found that the CBD has the function of inhibiting pulmonary arterial hypertension, and is especially suitable for treating the pulmonary arterial hypertension caused by hypoxemia.

A method of ameliorating symptoms of uremia includes administering a therapeutic agent including beraprost or each isomer constituting beraprost, or a salt thereof as an effective ingredient to an animal belonging to the Family Canidae, wherein an effective dosage is a dosage that does not significantly lower blood pressure.

A method of treating COPD, Asthma, Pneumonia, Bronchitis, Cystic Fibrosis, Pulmonary Edema, Interstitial Lung Disease, Sarcoidosis, Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis and PAH in a patient. One embodiment includes administering a vasodilator prostacyclin analogue, such as Beraprost or Iloprost, separately or together with a form of Diethylcarbamazine or Zileuton. Other embodiments may include fluvoxamine. The vasodilator prostacyclin analogue is inhaled. Diethylcarbamazine/Zileuton is inhaled into the lung or administered orally or intravenously. Other embodiments include fluvoxamine. This treatment reduces the progression of the disease, reduces life-threatening exacerbations, and improves the quality of life. The treatment is also for COPD patients with eosinophilia who are incompletely treated with steroids and addresses steroid-unresponsive disease components of COPD including pulmonary hypertension and intravascular inflammation and bronchiectasis. The treatment may include a PDE4 inhibitor and current treatments with existing steroids and beta-adrenergic receptor agonists and/or muscarinic receptor blockers. The treatment is also for ARDS and COVID-19.
