antagonists ("AT1 antagoni~ts"), are substance4 which
displace the hormone angiotensin II from its receptor
(ATl rsceptor). AR, especially ATl antagonists, lower the
blood pre~sure when the hypertension i~ associated with
an increased activity of the renin-angiotensin ~y~tem.

It i8 remarkabla that concurrent administration
of AR di~tinctly enhances the action of the ~aid PCA in
lowering blood pressure, lowers the heart rate and
reduce~ the activity of the renin-angiotensin system.
This effect can be found, for example, in standard tests
on anaesthetised or conscious rats, dogs, cats, monXeys
or minipig~, for example by methods as described in
EP~A2-0,271,271.
The new pharmaceutical compo~ition can be pre-
pared by converting (at least) one PCA and (at least) one
AR together with at least one solid, liquid or 8emi-
liquid vehicle or auxiliary into a sui~able do3age form.
The composition~ obtained in thi~ way can be u~ed a~
pharmaceutical~ in human or veterinary medicine, e~-
pecially for lowering blood pressure. Suitable vehicles
~ are organic or inorganic substances which are suitable
: for enteral (for example oral or rec~al), parenteral or
topical administration and ~o not react with the new
compounds, for example water, vegetable oils, benzyl
alcohol~, polyethylene glycols, glycerol triacetate and
other fatty acid glyceride~, gelatin, ~oya lecithin,
carbohydrates such as lacto~e or starch, magnesium
stearate, talc or cellulose. U~ed for oral administration
are, in particular, tablet~, coated tablet~, capsules,
25 SylUp8~ ~olutions or drop8, for rectal administration are
suppositorie~, for parenteral ad~inistration are solu-
tions, preferably oily or aqueous solutions, as well a~
: suspen ion~, emul3ion~ or:~ implants, and for topical
adminiYtrat~on are o-n~ment~, cr~am~ or pla~ters. The
active ~ubstances can also be freeze-dried and the
reffulting lyophili~ate~ used,:for example~ for:preparing
in~ection products. ~he compositions can be s$erilised
: and/or contain auxiliarie~ 3uch as preservatives~ stabi-
liser~ and/or wetting agents, emul~ifier~, salts to
influence ~he o~motic pre~sure, bufer su~tance~,
: colorants and/or flavouring~. They can also contain other
active sub~tances, for example other ~ubstance~ actiny to
lower blood pressure, or diuretics.

The compo~itions according to the invention are,
a~ a rule, adminis~ered for the therapy and/or prophy-
laxis of di~order~ of the cardiovascular 8y8t~m, e~-
pecially decompensated heart failure, angina pectoris,
peripheral or cerebrsl vessel di~orders and pathological
states associated wlth high blood pressure, in analogy to
known substances acting to lower the blood pressure,
especially the AR themselves. The dosages o the PCA are
prefarably between about 0.01 mg and 50 mg, especially
0.02 and 5 mg, very particularly preferably between 0.1
and 1 mg, per do~age unlt. The AR are preferably used in
do~ages between 0.5 and 500 mg, especially between 1 and
200 mg, per dosage unit. Preferred do~ages of the
indicated individual AR are between 2 and 200, especially
between S and 100 mg per dosage unit. The daily dosage of
the PCA is preferably between about 0.0001 and 1,
preferably between 0.0002 and 0.1 mg/kg of body weight,
and those of the AR are preferably between about 0.01 and
10 mg/kg of body weight. The specific do~e for each
particular patien~ depend~, however, on a wide variety of
factors, for ex~mple on the activity of the specific
compound employed, the age, body weight, general state of
health, ~ex, the diet, the time and route of
administration, the rate of elimination, drug combination
and severity of the particular disea~e for which the
therapy is applied. Oral administration is preferred.
The components of the~ new pharmacsutical com-
position are preferably adminis~ered in combination.
However, ~they can al~o be admini~tered ~ingly, con-
currently or uccessively.Example A: ~ablets
A mixture of 20 g of PCA active substance ~e.g.
Ia), 0.4 kg of AR active ~ub~tance (e.g. D~P 753), 4 kg
of lactose, 1.2 Xg of potato starch, 0.2 kg of talc and
0.1 kq of magnesi~m ~tearate i~ compressed in a customary
manner to give tablets such tha~ each tablet contains
1 mg of PCA active sub~tance and 20 mg of AR active
substance.

~ample B: Coated tablet~
Tablets are compressed in analoyy to Example A
and then coated in a conventional manner with a coating
composed of sucrose, potato starch, talc, tragacanth and
S colorant.
~ample C: Cap~ules
A screened mixture of 30 g of PCA active
~ubstance (e.g. Ib), 1 kg of AR active substance and 6 kg
of lactose i~ used to fill hard gelatin capsuleR in a
customary manner ~uch that each capsule contains 0.3 mg
of PCA active ~ubstance and 10 mg of AR active su~stance.
~xample D: Ampoule~
A solution of 2 g of PCA active substance (e.g.
Ic) and 0.1 kg of AR active sub~tance in 30 1 of double-
distilled water i8 filtered qterile, dispensed intoampoules, freeze-dried under ~terile condltions and
saalad sterile. Each ampoule contain~ 0.1 mg of PCA
active ~o~tance and S mg of ~R actlve s~o~tance.
