Summary
This early-stage study will give 12 healthy men dexamethasone to see how it changes the activity of key drug-metabolizing enzymes. Participants will also take a cocktail of probe drugs and voriconazole to measure these effects. The goal is to understand potential drug interactions, which could help make prescribing safer.
