A BMI of ≥ 30 is no exclusion criterion when the subject can be considered healthy apart from the elevated BMI further inclusion criteria apply F4 liver cirrhosis patients only: Male and female subjects, 18 to 75 years BMI of 18.5 to 40.0 kg/m2 (inclusive) Stable treatment for at least 4 weeks prior to taking the cocktail further inclusion criteria apply Healthy subjects and F4 liver cirrhosis patients: Subjects already taking digoxin, furosemide, metformin or rosuvastatin within 4 weeks of enrolment into the study. Furthermore, patients taking ezetimibe, fibrates, or the maximal dose (per Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC)) of any statin are excluded from this study. Subjects with any other condition that would preclude administration of digoxin, furosemide, metformin or rosuvastatin (i.e., contraindicated as per SmPC), such as hypersensitivity to active ingredient or any of the excipients or to sulphonamides, hypovolemia or dehydration, and partial obstructions of urinary outflow (e.g., prostatic hypertrophy) Repeated measurement of systolic blood pressure outside the range of 90 to 150 millimeter of mercury (mmHg), diastolic blood pressure outside the range of 50 to 95 mmHg, or pulse rate outside the range of 60 to 90 beats per minute (bpm) Cholecystectomy or other surgery of the gastrointestinal tract that could interfere with the pharmacokinetics of the trial medication (except appendectomy or simple hernia repair) Diseases of the central nervous system (including but not limited to any kind of seizures or stroke), and other relevant neurological or psychiatric disorders History of relevant orthostatic hypotension, fainting spells, or blackouts Relevant (other than Hepatitis B virus (HBV) or Hepatitis C virus (HCV)) chronic or acute infections (including an ongoing severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection) Patients receiving antiviral therapy at the time of inclusion into the trial further exclusion criteria apply
