Interventions and Outcome Measures

Interventions

midazolam(drug), digoxin (drug)

Midazolam (2mg po) and digoxin (0.5mg po) will be administered one time, an hour apart. Blood concentration will be collected at various points in an 8 hour period.

Bupropion (drug)

Bupropion (150mg po) will be administered one time on a separate visit. Blood concentrations will be collected at various points in a 72 hour period.

Methadone (drug)

Methadone (10mg po) will be administered at a separate visit 2 weeks after the bupropion visit. The dose is given once. Blood concentrations will be measured at various points in a 72 hour period. Pupil constriction will be measured and urine will be collected during this period as well.

Primary outcome measure

  • Explore if there is a correlation between the areas of the concentration curves of probe substrates for CYP3A4 and/or CYP2B6 and Pgp and the area of the concentration curve of methadone. [ Time Frame: two years ]
