Summary

This is a research study to look at how Dichloroacetate (DCA), and investigational drug and chloral hydrate are broken down in the body. The purpose of the study is to better understand how humans metabolize these two common chemicals that are widely present in the environment. The study focuses on how the drug chloral hydrate is broken down and how it effects DCA
