Group Intervention Description Tamsulosin + Paroxetine Tamsulosin Tamsulosin: q.d on day 1 Paroxetine: higher dose q.d. on days -7 to 2 q.d., lower dose on days -10 to -8 and 3 to 5 Tamsulosin Tamsulosin Tamsulosin: q.d on day 1 Tamsulosin + Paroxetine Paroxetine Tamsulosin: q.d on day 1 Paroxetine: higher dose q.d. on days -7 to 2 q.d., lower dose on days -10 to -8 and 3 to 5
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method AUC0-∞ (area under the concentration-time curve of tamsulosin HCl in plasma over the time interval from 0 extrapolated to infinity) up to 48 hours after dosing Cmax (maximum measured concentration of tamsulosin HCl in plasma) up to 48 hours after dosing
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Vz/F (apparent volume of distribution of tamsulosin HCl during the terminal phase λz following an extravascular administration) up to 48 hours after dosing RAUC0-∞,T/R (ratio of the test treatment versus the reference treatment from zero to infinity, expressed as ratio of AUC values after single dose) up to 48 hours after dosing AUC0-tz (area under the concentration-time curve of tamsulosin HCl in plasma over the time interval from 0 to the last quantifiable data point) up to 48 hours after dosing CL/F (apparent clearance of tamsulosin HCl in plasma after an extravascular administration) up to 48 hours after dosing tmax (time from dosing to the maximum measured concentration of tamsulosin HCl in plasma) up to 48 hours after dosing λz (terminal rate constant of tamsulosin HCl in plasma) up to 48 hours after dosing t1/2 (terminal half-life of tamsulosin HCl in plasma) up to 48 hours after dosing MRTpo (mean residence time of tamsulosin HCl in the body after oral administration) up to 48 hours after dosing RCmax,T/R (ratio of the Cmax value of the test treatment to the Cmax value of the reference treatment after single dose) up to 48 hours after dosing Number of subjects with adverse events up to 21 days after last treatment Assessment of tolerability by investigator on a 4-point scale within 21 days after last treatment
