Novartis AG is nearing a deal to buy cholesterol-drug maker the Medicines Co. for nearly $7 billion, in an expensive bid to expand its reach in the lucrative market for heart treatments.

The Swiss pharmaceutical giant has agreed to pay $85 a share in a deal that could be announced this weekend, people familiar with the matter said.

The acquisition would help Novartis, which has a market value of more than $200 billion, bulk up in a corner of the health-care market it is already targeting with drugs including its heart-failure treatment Entresto.
