Benefits of technology

"The present invention provides a new use of compounds that can be used to make medications for treating congestive heart failure. These compounds are dual non-selective β-adrenoceptor and α1-adrenoceptor antagonists. Specifically, carbazolyl-(4)-oxypropanolamine compounds are preferred. These compounds can be used alone or in combination with other therapeutic agents such as ACE inhibitors, diuretics, and cardiac glycosides. The invention provides a method of treatment using these compounds, as well as pharmaceutically acceptable salts of carvedilol."

Problems solved by technology

Congestive heart failure occurs as a result of impaired pumping capability of the heart and is associated with abnormal retention of water and sodium.
Also, congestive heart failure is a well-known cardiac disorder which results in an excess mortality.

Abstract

A method of treatment using carvedilol is disclosed, wherein the carvedilol decreases the risk of mortality caused by congestive heart failure in patients. The patients are titrated with low amounts of carvedilol, with the initial titration dosage being only 10 to 30% of the daily maintenance dose.

Description

[0001]This application is a 371 of PCT / EP96 / 00498 filed Feb. 7, 1996.FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0002]The present invention relates to a new method of treatment using compounds which are dual non-selective β-adrenoceptor and α1-adrenoceptor antagonists in particular the carbazolyl-(4)-oxypropanolamine compounds of Formula I, preferably carvedilol, for decreasing the mortality of patients suffering from congestive heart failure (CHF). The invention also relates to a method of treatment using compounds which are dual non-selective β-adrenoceptor and α1-adrenoceptor antagonists, in particular the carbazolyl-(4)-oxypropanolamine compounds of Formula I, preferably carvedilol, in conjunction with one or more other therapeutic agents, said agents being selected from the group consisting of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, diuretics, and cardiac glycosides, for decreasing the mortality of patients suffering from CHF. The invention further relates to an incremental application sche...
