Abstract: The present invention concerns novel pharmaceutical compositions of immethridine, in particular of novel pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, such as the dioxalate salt of immethridine, as well as its therapeutical uses and novel process of preparation.

Abstract: Medicament comprising, in a pharmaceutically acceptable vehicle, an anti-psychotic or an antidepressant (A), which, on its own, has an undesirable effect of a gain in body weight or sedation, and an antagonist and/or inverse agonist (B) of the histamine H3 receptor, the antagonist and/or inverse agonist of the histamine H3 receptor being present in a therapeutically effective amount for ensuring at least one of the following three effects: suppression or at least limitation of the undesirable effect of weight gain, suppression or limitation of the undesirable effect on alertness, epilepsy/convulsions, increase in the precognitive effect of the treatment. Use of such an antagonist or inverse agonist for the preparation of a medicament which is to ensure at least one of the said three effects in a patient treated by such an antipsychotic or antidepressant.

Abstract: The present patent application concerns compounds of formula (I) with R1 and R2 taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, form a mono or bicyclic saturated nitrogen-containing ring; their preparation and their use as a H3 receptor ligand for treating e.g. CNS disorders like Alzheimer's disease.

Abstract: Use of a compound of formula (A), wherein: W is a residue which imparts antagonistic and/or agonistic activity at histamine H3-receptors when attached to an imidazole ring in 4(5) position; R1 and R2 may be identical or different and represent each independently a lower alkyl or cycloalkyl, or taken together with the nitrogen atom to which they are attached, a saturated nitrogen-containing ring (i) as defined, a non-aromatic unsaturated nitrogen-containing ring (ii) as defined, a morpholino group, or a N-substituted piperazino group as defined for preparing medicaments acting as antagonists and/or agonists at the H3-receptors of histamine.
