Provided herein are tri-salt compounds comprising a compound having two acidic functional groups and one basic functional groups ( e.g ., aspartate or glutamate), metformin, and polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as eicosapentaenoate or docosahexaenoate. The salts can be used in the treatment of diabetes, diabetes with concomitant dyslipidemia ( e.g. , high triglycerides) and diabetes exacerbated cardiovascular complications, such as cardiac arrhythmia, cardiac ischemia, myocardial infarction, cardiomyopathy, and stroke. The compounds of this invention are also useful in treating obesity. |
