- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To determine the safety of noribogaine in a healthy normal participant population. This will be assessed by observations including physical examinations, clinical laboratory tests and ECGs[These will be assessed frequently over 72 hours then periodically duing the next 6 days following a single dose.];To determine the tolerability of noribogaine in a healthy normal participant population. This will be assessed by clinical observation and adverse event reporting. <br><br>Expected adverse events are not known with certainty but may include events commonly seen with serotonergic medications such as certain antidepressants and opioids. Adverse events include participant reports and clinically significant abnormalities of observations defined in the protocol. All adverse events will be assessed by the principal investigator.[These will be assessed frequently over 72 hours then periodically during the next 6 days following a single dose]
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method To determine the pharmacokinetic profile of noribogaine in the study participants. This will be assessed using blood samples that will be analyzed for noribogaine.[Samples will be obtained frequently over 72 hours, then periodically over the next 6 days following a single dose.];To determine the pharmacodynamic profile of noribogaine in the study participants. This will be measured by physiological assessments of analgesic and mu opioid agonist activity[This will be assessed frequently over 72 hours then periodically over the next 6 days following a single dose.]
