NCT03312777

Brief Summary

This study evaluates the analgesic effect of Omnitram and tramadol during concurrent administration of paroxetine. Paroxetine administration is expected to diminish the analgesic effect of tramadol, but not Omnitram. Each participant will receive paroxetine before and during treatment with Omnitram, tramadol, and placebo.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Cold Pressor Test - Cold Water Induced-Pain

    The participant immerses a hand in cold water for a maximum of 3 minutes and reports the pain they experience using a "0 (no pain) to 10 (worst pain)" scale. Immersion of hand in ice cold water

    The test is performed on Day 3, shortly after the ninth (final) dose of study drug.

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Adverse Events

    Participant report adverse events throughout study enrolment; investigators observe adverse events during all three 3 day inpatient treatment segments; laboratory safety labs are obtained on Day 3 of treatment segment 3 (the final treatment segment).

  • Steady State Pharmacokinetics

    8 hours

  • History of seizures, epilepsy, or recognized increase risk of seizure (e.g., head trauma, metabolic disorders, alcohol or drug withdrawal).
  • History of cirrhosis or laboratory evidence of liver disease.
  • Use of alcohol within 24 hours of day -1 until the end of the study; and grapefruit, grapefruit-related citrus fruits (e.g., Seville oranges, pomelos), or grapefruit juice or grapefruit-related juices, or other medication, within 7 days of study drug administration and until the end of the study.
  • History of previous anaphylaxis, severe allergic reaction to paroxetine, tramadol, codeine, or other opioid drugs.
