Abstract

A compound of an angiotensin receptor antagonist (ARB), a neutral endopeptidase inhibitor (NEPi) and one or more monovalent cations are useful for the treatment of hypertension and/or heart failure. ARB includes S—N-valeryl-N-{[2′-(1H-tetrazole-5-yl)-biphenyl-4-yl]-methyl}-valine in the anion form, NEPi includes (2R,4S)-5-biphenyl-4-yl-4-(3-carboxy-propionylamino)-2-methyl-pentanoic acid ethyl ester in the anion form and cation includes monovalent cations such as Na + . The compound includes trisodium [3-((1S,3R)-1-biphenyl-4-ylmethyl-3-ethoxycarbonyl-1-butylcarbamoyl)propionate-(S)-3′-methyl-2′-(pentanoyl{2″-(tetrazol-5-ylate)biphenyl-4′-ylmethyl}amino)butyrate] hemipentahydrate.
