Abstract: There are disclosed pharmaceutical compositions for topical administration or for use in mesotherapy, containing a PDE3 inhibitor as active ingredient, and their use in the treatment of cellulite.

Abstract: Non-peptide compounds having activity as selective antagonists of bradykinin (BK) B2 receptor are disclosed. The compounds have the general formula (I) in which R is hydrogen or methyl; W is a single bond or an oxygen atom; n=3; X is hydrogen or a —NR1R2 amino group in which R1 and R2 can be independently hydrogen or a group which is methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, or isopropyl; Y is a —NR3R4R5 quaternary ammonium group in which R3, R4, R5 can be independently a group which is methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, or n-pentyl; and the enantiomers and enantiomeric mixtures thereof. Pharmaceutical compositions containing these compounds and methods of using the compounds to treat patients having conditions, disorders or diseases involving activation of bradykinin B2 receptors are also disclosed.

Abstract: Non-peptide compounds of formula (I) having activity as specific antagonists of bradykinin (BK) B2 receptor. The compounds are chemically characterized by the presence of an alpha, alpha-disubstituted amino acid at least one amino group, free or salified, or the corresponding ammonium quaternary salt. These BK receptor antagonists are a novel class of medicaments which can be used in all the disorders in which the receptors are involved.
