Abstract
This invention relates to a method of lowering abnormally high serum cholesterol levels in the body without significantly reducing mevalonic metabolite synthesis and to novel pharmacological compositions containing as an active ingredient bisphosphonic acid and ester compounds containing a mono-, bi- or tricyclic ring linked with a bisphosphonate moiety through a basic amino alkylene group. This invention also provides novel bisphosphonate compounds and the processes for their preparation.
