Pharmaceutical compositions and method for the inhibition and treatment of secondary hypertension

摘要

The present invention relates to the use of benzazepine-N-acetic acid derivatives which contain an oxo-group in the alpha-position to the nitrogen atom and are substituted in position 3 by a 1-(carboxyalkyl)cyclo-entylcarbonylamino radical, and their salts and biolabile esters for the treatment of hypertension, particularly for the treatment of certain forms of secondary hypertension, in larger mammals and particularly humans, and for the production of pharmaceutical compositions suitable for this treatment. The cause of the hypertension to be treated may have a wide variety of origins. The invention particularly relates to the treatment of those forms of secondary hypertension which may occur as a result of various non-cardiac diseases.
