Overview
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of a combination product for the prevention of veisalgia. Common symptoms of veisalgia following the moderate consumption of alcohol includes headache, fatigue, and thirst. It is the investigators hypothesis that a combination of two drugs can alleviate or significantly reduce these symptoms when taken before the start of moderate alcohol consumption.
Detailed Description
Some people who consume alcohol in moderation experience veisalgia. These symptoms include a long list of adverse effects that include headache, fatigue and thirst. The mechanism by which these effects occur has not been fully elucidated. Although, it has been documented that alcohol causes the release of a large number of substances into the blood stream that cause a number of physiologic changes. A 4-arm study will help to determine the effect each agent contributes to decreasing the alcohol induces physiologic changes and the effect when the two agents are delivered concurrently.

The 0.04% - 0.11% BAC correlates approximately with a 120-160 pound female drinking 2 to 5 drinks in 2 to 3 hours, respectively, and a 160-200 pound male drinking 3 to 7 drinks in 2 to 3 hours, respectively.
- •Subject has had a moderate to heavy drinking episode in the past 90 days that produced hangover symptoms
- •Subject is knowledgeable of the amount of alcohol he/she needs to consume over a 2 to 3 hour period of time to produce hangover symptoms
- •Body mass index between 19 and 32 kg/m2, inclusive
- •Report a regular, habitual bedtime between 21:30 and 24:00
- •Females of childbearing potential must be using an acceptable method of contraception (see Section 8.5) or have been surgically sterilized and have a negative urine pregnancy test at screening and upon admission for each treatment visit
- •Subject is capable of understanding the requirements of the study and to give written informed consent
- •Subject is able to follow study instructions and is willing to complete all study visits and procedures
Exclusion Criteria
- •Acute illness within 14 days prior to screening visit
- •Allergic reaction or upper respiratory tract infection within 7 days of screening visit
- •Vaccination administration within 7 days of screening visit
- •Clinically significant, unstable medical illness
- •Evidence or history of clinically significant allergic (except for untreated, asymptomatic, seasonal allergies at time of dosing), hematological, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic or neurological disease
- •History of cancer or diabetes
- •Subject has a previous or current Substance-Related Disorder as defined by DSM-5
- •Self-report of a usual consumption of more than 14 units of alcohol per week. One unit of alcohol is equivalent to 12 ounces of beer, 4 ounces of wine, or
- •1 ounce of liquor
- •Self-report of recent (within one month) or current use of smoked or chewed tobacco products, or use of nicotine (e.g., nicotine gum or patch)

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Efficacy of Side Effect Prevention Using the Acute Hangover Scale
Time Frame: 24 hours
Efficacy of pain medicine + antihistamine in reducing (as compared to placebo) symptoms associated with Veisalgia. The Acute Hangover Scale (AHS) will be used to evaluate side effects on the following morning post alcohol consumption. The scale includes 9 symptom assessments each ranging from 0-10. The total score can range from 0-90. (0= no symptoms, 10 = worst symptom ever).
