摘要

The invention provides compositions and methods for treating pulmonary diseases and conditions. The provided compositions and methods utilize low concentrations of selective α-2 adrenergic receptor agonists having a binding affinity of 300 fold or greater for α-2 over α-1 adrenergic receptors. The compositions preferably comprise brimonidine and/or dexmedetomidine.
