The Effect of Escitalopram on the Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Tramadol in Healthy Subjects
Information source: University of Southern Denmark
Information obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov on August 08, 2008 Link to the current ClinicalTrials.gov record.
Condition(s) targeted: Healthy
Intervention: escitalopram and tramadol (Drug); placebo (Drug); placebo and tramadol (Drug)
Phase: Phase 4
Status: Recruiting
Sponsored by: University of Southern Denmark
Summary
Escitalopram will be given to a panel of 16 healthy subject for 9 days. On the ninth day a
single dose of tramadol is administered to the subjects and pharmacokinetic(PK) and
pharmacodynamic(PD) measurements are done for the next 24 hours.
It is stated that escitalopram is only a weak inhibitor of CYP2D6 and therefore no effect is
seen in Pk or PK of tramadol
