Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for use in the treatment of a disease or disorder, wherein said disease or disorder is preferably a disease or disorder in which aldosterone overexposure contributes to the symptoms of said disease or disorder, said composition comprises a compound which is (R)-(+)-5-(p-cyanophenyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-a]pyridine or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein preferably said compound is (R)-(+)-5-(p-cyanophenyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazolium[1,5-a]pyridine dihydrogen phosphate, and wherein said compound has an enantiomeric excess (ee) of the (R) form higher than or equal to 97%, and wherein said composition is administered once daily to a subject in need thereof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a compound selected from (R)-(+)-5-(p-cyanophenyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-a]pyridine and a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, and in particular to the phosphate salt of (R)-(+)-5-(p-cyanophenyl)-5,6,7,8-tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-a]pyridine, both having preferably an enantiomeric excess of the (R) form higher than or equal to 97%. Furthermore, the present invention relates to pharmaceutical compositions comprising the same, their use as a medicament and in methods of treatment of diseases and disorders in humans including women of child bearing potential and pediatric patients in which aldosterone over-exposure contributes to the deleterious effects of said diseases or disorders, as well as processes for preparing said inventive compounds.
