Abstract: Combinations comprising a) an inhibitor of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) and b) an angiotensin II receptor antagonist are useful for treating hypertension.

Abstract: The invention provides compounds of formula (I), wherein R1 represents C1-4 alkoxy optionally substituted by one or more fluorine atoms; R2 represents H or C1-6 alkoxy optionally substituted by one or more fluorine atoms; R3 represents one or more groups independently selected from H, halogen, C1-4 alkoxy and CF3; in addition, R2 and one R3 group may together represent —OCH2—, the methylene group being attached to the ortho-position of the pendant phenyl ring; R4 represents a 4-, 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring containing 1 or 2 heteroatoms selected from N, O and S, the ring being optionally fused to a benzene ring or a 5- or 6-membered heterocyclic ring containing 1 or 2 heteroatoms selected from N, O and S, the ring system as a whole being optionally substituted; X represents CH or N; and L is absent or represents a cyclic group or an open chain group; and the pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof.

Abstract: Combinations comprising a) an inhibitor of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) specific phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) inhibitor and b) an inhibitor of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) are useful for treating hypertension.
