Abstract

ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE

The potassium conserving diuretics, N-amidino-3,5-diamino-6-chloropyrazinecarboxamide and its hydro-chloride, 2-oxygenated-6,7-methylene-2?-spirozanes; 17-a-pregnase-21-carboxylic acids and spironolactone are orally co-administered with 4-substituted carbonyl-2,3-dichloro-phenoxyacetic acid diuretics wherein the substituents are furyl, thienyl, or loweralkylthienyl as mixtures or, in the instance of N-amidino-3,5-diamino-6-chloropyrazinamide, as salts to avoid hypokalemia in patients.

Description

15~97 ~5~5 11 The present invention relates to pharmaceutical 12 formulations and particularly to preparations which have 13 advantageous diuretic and/or saluretic properties. For 14 simplicity, the word diuretic is hereafter used in a com-mon or generic sense, to apply to drugs which cause di-16 uresis (incr~ased urine excre~ion) and/or saluresis tin-17 creased electrolyte excretion). ~-18 Diuretics are valuable therapeutic agents as 19 they are useful in the treatment of cardiovascular and renal diseases. Their use is indicated in the management of all 21 types and grades of severity of congestive heart failure 22 in whi~h diuretic therapy improvement is required. Due to 23 the resultin~ loss of water and electrolyte dramatic im-24 provem$nt is noted in peripheral and pulmonary edema, 25 ~ dyspne~, orthopnea, cough, ascites and pleural effusionO
26 ` - ~ These drugs also provide effective therapy in 27 variou~ forms of renal edema; e.g., edema associated with 28 ~ephrosi~ and certain types of nephritis. Their adminis-29 tratio~ resul~s in prompt excretion of retained fluid and , ~

1~697 ~q~7S~1~i5 1 electrolytes with consequent benefit to the patient. The
2 desired electrolye to be excreted i5 sodium chloride.
3 These drugs are especially useful in the treat-
4 ment of hypertension and provide useful therapy in mild, moderate and severe forms of the disease.
6 Although diuretics are often life-saving because 7 of the above beneficial therapeutic e~fects, most of them 8 have the disadvantage of causing the excretion of appre-g ciable amounts of potassium ions. When a~ excessive los3 of potas~ium ions occurs a se~ere muscular weakness and 11 feeling of extreme physical exhaustion results. The pa-1~ tient eliminates the unwanted sodium ions due to the 13 action of the diuretic drugs but the undesired elimination 1~ of the potassium ions produces an imbalance that should not be allowed to persist.
16 In addition to their other effects, these com-17 pounds are able to maintain th~ uric acid concentration 18 in the body at pretreatment levels or to even effect a 19 decrease in the uric acid concentration. Many of the presently available diuretics and saluretics have a ten-21 dency upon administratlon to induce hyperuricemia which 22 may precipitate uric acid or sodium urate, or both, in the . .
23 body which may cause from mild to severe cases of gout.

24 The instant compounds of this invention now provide an effec ive tool to trea~ those patients requiring diuretic :: :, 6 and saluretic treatment without incurring the risk of in-27 ducing gout.

28 The invention involves co-administration of a 4-29 substituted carbonyl-2,3-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid with a :

10~5~L5S

1 pyrazinoylguanidine as a mixture or as a salt, with a 3-2 oxygenated-6,7-m~hylene-20-spiroxane; 17-a-pregnane-21-3 carboxylic acid or with spironolactone as a mixture, to 4 thereby result in a reduction of the amount of potassium ions that are eliminated without a reduction in the amount 6 of ~odium ions that are eliminated.
7 Another advantage, in the case of the N-amidino-8 3,5-diamino 6-chloropyrazinecarboxamide salts of the 4-9 substituted carbonyl-2,3-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid diure-tics is their insolubility which makes the salts' gastroin-11 testinal absorption slower and more gradual providing a 12 chemical method of achieving the same e~fect as microencap-13 sulation.
14 The 4-substituted carbonyl 2,3-dichlorophenoxy-acetic acids useful in the present invention have the fol-16 lowing structural formula: X2 17 2 ~R

Alkhough these are the pre-4 ferred ones of the 4-substituted carbonyl-2,3-dichloro-phenoxyacetic acid class of diuretics, the invention con-6 templates the use in their place of any of the related 7 compounds recited above.
