Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the abuse potential of gabapentin enacarbil in healthy adult, non-dependent, recreational drug users.

Detailed description

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the abuse potential of gabapentin enacarbil immediate-release (GE-IR), the active moiety in Horizant in comparison to placebo and an active control with known abuse potential (i.e., alprazolam). This study will be a randomized, double-blind, active- and placebo-controlled, 5-way crossover study to determine the abuse potential of gabapentin enacarbil immediate release (GE-IR) relative to alprazolam (active control) and placebo, in nondependent, recreational drug users with sedative drug use experience. This study will consist of 3 phases: screening, qualification, and treatment.
