Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: On the basis of in vitro studies indicating that dipyridamole is an inhibitor for the MDR1 efflux membrane transporter P-glycoprotein, we postulated that dipyridamole could increase the bioavailability of digoxin, a P-glycoprotein substrate. OBJECTIVES: The main objective was to determine whether dipyridamole alters the bioavailability of digoxin. The secondary objective was to determine whether the...
