Abstract
A compound of formula (I), or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof, wherein G, T.sup.1, T.sup.2 and T.sup.3 are selected from CH and N; provided that T.sup.2 and T.sup.3 are not both CH; A is selected from a direct bond and (1-4C)alkylene; X is selected from oxy, thio, sulphinyl, sulphonyl, carbonyl, carbonylamino, N-di-(1-6C)alkylcarbonylamino, sulphonamido, methylene, (1-4C)alkylmethylene and di-(1-6C)alkylmethylene, and when T.sup.2 is CH, X may also be selected from aminosulphonyl and oxycarbonyl; and Q is selected from (5-7C)cycloalkyl, a heterocyclic moiety containing up to 4 heteroatoms selected from nitrogen, oxygen and sulphur, phenyl, naphthyl, phenyl(1-4C)alkyl and phenyl(2-6C)alkenyl; for the manufacture of a medicament for treating diseases or medical conditions in which an inhibition of oxido-squalene cyclase is desirable. ##STR1##
