NCT ID NCT05944965
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how two drugs, atomoxetine and oxybutynin, affect throat muscles in people with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA). The goal was to understand why the combination works better than either drug alone. 27 adults with OSA took part, and researchers measured muscle activity during sleep. The findings help explain the mechanism behind this potential new treatment.
