Study to Evaluate the Effect of Solifenacin and Mirabegron on the Digoxin Concentrations in Blood in Healthy Subjects

A Phase 1 Study to Evaluate the Effect of Steady State Solifenacin and Mirabegron on the Steady State Pharmacokinetics of Digoxin in Healthy Subjects

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of steady state solifenacin and mirabegron on the pharmacokinetics of co-administered steady state digoxin. This study will also evaluate the safety and tolerability of the combined steady state administration of solifenacin, mirabegron and digoxin.
