We assessed the pharmacokinetics and interactions of steady-state micafungin (Mycamine) or placebo with steady-state voriconazole in 35 volunteers. The 90% confidence intervals around the least-squares mean ratios for micafungin pharmacokinetic parameters and placebo-corrected voriconazole pharmacokinetic parameters were within the 80%-to-125% limits, indicating an absence of drug interaction.
