(R)-SCH 42495 is the less active enantiomer of SCH 42495[1]. SCH 42495 is an orally active neutral metalloendopeptidase (NEP) inhibitor with antihypertensive effect. SCH 42495 is the orally active ethylester proagent of SCH 42354[2]. | [in vivo]
Inhibition of NEP in vivo has been shown to produce beneficial vasodilatory and natriuretic responses[1]. | [References]
