Study Summary

This trial will investigate if mirabegron can improve cold water tolerance for Navy divers, helping them stay warm and complete successful missions.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for men and women aged 18-40 who exercise regularly (at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity per week) over the past two years. It's not for those on certain meds they can't stop, with heart, metabolic, liver or kidney issues, pregnant or breastfeeding women, tobacco users within a year, or people with neurological, endocrine, autonomic or respiratory diseases.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests if Mirabegron can help Navy divers tolerate cold water better by activating brown fat to generate heat. Participants will either get Mirabegron or a placebo to see if it delays getting cold and shivering during cold-water immersion challenges.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Mirabegron may cause increased blood pressure and heart rate; it might also lead to urinary tract infections (UTIs), headaches, dizziness, joint pain or digestive problems like nausea.
