COMPOSITIONS COMPRISING INHIBITORS OF DPP-IV AND NEP ENZYMES FOR THE TREATMENT OF DIABETES

摘要

The present invention is related to a method and composition for treatment of diabetes, hypertension, chronic heart failure and fluid retentive states comprising administering inhibitors of the enzymes NEP and DPP-IV to individuals suffering from one or more of those conditions. Inhibition of the activity of the two enzymes will potentiate the insulin releasing activity of endogenous GLP-1 and other DPP-IV substrates like GIP.
