Benefits of technology

[0141] Where used herein, the term “cardiac risk”means, the likelihood that a subject will suffer a future adverse cardiac event such as, e.g., myocardial infarction, cardiac arrests cardiac failure, cardia

Problems solved by technology

Patients who undergo PTCA or other surgical procedures designed to treat angina pectoris frequently experience complications such as restenosis.
Hypertension frequently coexists with hyperlipidemia and both are considered to be major risk factors for developing cardiac disease ultimat

Embodiment Construction

[0142] The pharmaceutical compositions of this invention comprise amlodipine or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof and / or atorvastatin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.

[0143] Amlodipine may readily be prepared as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,572,909 which is incorporated herein by reference. Amlodipine besylate, which is currently sold as Norvasc®, may be prepared as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,879,303, which is incorporated herein by reference. Amlodipine and amlodipine besylate are potent and long lasting calcium channel blockers.

[0144] The expression “pharmaceutically-acceptable acid addition salts”is intended to define but is not limited to such salts as the hydrochloride, hydrobromide, sulfate, hydrogen sulfate, phosphate, hydrogen phosphate, dihydrogenphosphate, acetate, besylate, succinate, citrate, methanesulfonate (mesylate) and p-toluenesulfonate (tosylate) salts.

[0145] Other acid addition salts of amlodipine may be prepared by reacti...

Abstract

This invention relates to pharmaceutical combinations of amlodipine or a pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salt thereof and atorvastatin or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, kits containing such combinations and methods of using such combinations to treat subjects suffering from angina pectoris, atherosclerosis, combined hypertension and hyperlipidemia and to treat subjects presenting with symptoms of cardiac risk, including humans. This invention also relates to additive and synergistic combinations of amlodipine and atorvastatin whereby those synergistic combinations are useful in treating subjects suffering from angina pectoris, atherosclerosis, combined hypertension and hyperlipidemia and those subjects presenting with symptoms of cardiac risk, including humans.

Description

[0001] This invention relates to pharmaceutical combinations of amlodipine and pharmaceutically acceptable acid addition salts thereof and atorvastatin and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, kits containing such combinations and methods of using such combinations to treat subjects suffering from angina pectoris, atherosclerosis, combined hypertension and hyperlipidemia and to treat subjects presenting with symptoms of cardiac risk, including humans. This invention also relates to additive and synergistic combinations of amlodipine and atorvastatin whereby those additive and synergistic combinations are useful in treating subjects suffering from angina pectoris, atherosclerosis, combined hypertension and hyperlipidemia and those subjects presenting with symptoms or signs of cardiac risk, including humans. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] The conversion of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) to mevalonate is an early and rate-limiting step in the cholesterol bios...
