About this trial

The purpose of the project is to investigate urine concentration after inhalation of salmeterol. This will be examined following acute physical activity under both normal conditions and heated conditions.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Age 18-40

Physically active >5 hours a week

Maximum oxygen uptake classified as high or very high

Disqualifiers

Active smoker currently or within the past 5 years

Regular intake of medication deemed by the responsible study physician to affect the test parameters (hormonal contraception is accepted for women)

Chronic or acute illness deemed by the responsible study physician to affect the test parameters

Deviation from the study protocol

Trial design

Design model

Sequential

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Normal conditions

    Other intervention

    Participants are administered salmeterol, after which they perform various performance tests in normal conditions. Following the administration of salmeterol, urine samples are collected over the next 24 hours at intervals of 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 24 hours after administration.

  • Heated conditions

    Other intervention

    Participants are administered salmeterol, after which they perform various performance tests in heated conditions. Following the administration of salmeterol, urine samples are collected over the next 24 hours at intervals of 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 24 hours after administration.

  • Salmeterol inhalation and urine samples

    Drug

    After the experimental day under normal conditions, all participants are administered 200 µg of salmeterol daily (8 puffs from the MDI device) during a 6-day intervention period. Two hours after inhalation, the participants collect spot urine samples at home

Treatment groups
