Primary outcomePrimary: Area Under the Concentration Versus Time Curve (AUC) at Steady State of Methadone Enantiomers When Administered With or Without Boceprevir — 50.1; 42.4; 56.9; 44.6 (ng.hr/mL)/mg
Summary
In this study, participants on methadone or buprenorphine/naloxone maintenance therapy will be given boceprevir. Blood samples will be taken at specified intervals to find out whether boceprevir affects the pharmacokinetics of methadone, buprenorphine, or naloxone.
