Hi Dan,

❝ In case linear PK applies for drug1 and drug2 a single-dose study is sufficient, otherwise I need to investigate steady state PK, right?


Nope. DDI should always be performed with the highest generally recommended dose in steady state (GL Section 5.4.3).

❝ […] Since the same route of elimination is partly used there could be a kind of competition. Could this be detected after single dose administration or do you need staedy state PK?


Exactly. See 5.4.4 of the guideline. It might well be that you see little effect after a single dose because the enzyme system needs some time to get activated.
