Summary

This is an open label non-randomized single sequence, single group two way drug interaction study in healthy adult volunteers to determine the extent to which quinine, an inducer of cytochrome p450 CYP 3A4, affects the pharmacokinetics of midazolam, an accepted probe drug for CYP 3A4. The study will also determine the extent to which midazolam affects the pharmacokinetics of quinine.
