Effect of Charcoal on Gastrointestinal Absorption of Tiotropium
- Registration Number
- NCT03945344
- Lead Sponsor
- Orion Corporation, Orion Pharma
- Brief Summary
The study will assess how efficiently activated charcoal will block absorption of tiotropium via the gastro intestinal track. Pharmacokinetics of tiotropium will be compared after orally administered tiotropium capsule with and without concomitant activated charcoal administration in healthy volunteers.
