Effect of urapidil on steady-state serum digoxin concentration in healthy subjects

In an open, randomized, two-period change-over study the effect of urapidil, an antihypertensive agent, on steady-state serum digoxin levels was investgated in 12 healthy male volunteers. The subjects were given digoxin 0.25 mg once daily for 4 days to produce a steady-state digoxin level in serum. At the end of that time the subjects received either digoxin monotherapy or digoxin and concomitant treatment with urapidil 60 mg b.d. for a further 4 days. Subsequently the treatments were changed over.
