Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
HeadacheChange in pre-treatment score to 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours post-treatment

Headache will be measured on a 100 mm VAS. The subject will indicate the severity of any headache by drawing a vertical line on the horizontally positioned VAS. The left end (0 mm) of the VAS will designate 'no pain' and the right end (100mm) will designate 'most severe pain imaginable' with no intermediate divisions or descriptive terms.

IntoxicationChange in pre-treatment score to 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours post-treatment

Intoxication will be measured using a 0-100 mm VAS scale, with left (0 mm) and right (100 mm) anchors designated 'not at all' and 'very much' to assess subjects' subjective experience of intoxication.

Mental FatigueChange in pre-treatment score to 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours post-treatment

Mental fatigue will be measured using a 0-100 mm VAS scale, with left (0 mm) and right (100 mm) anchors designated 'not at all' and 'very much' to assess subjects' subjective experience of mental fatigue.

Clumsy-Well CoordinatedChange in pre-treatment score to 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours post-treatment

Clumsy-Well Coordinated will be measured by a 100 mm visual analog scale (VAS) representing bipolar adjective pairs for the assessment of both alerting and sedating CNS drug effects.

Energetic-LethargicChange in pre-treatment score to 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 6 and 8 hours post-treatment

This is a computerized test that will be used to assess the subject's cognitive functioning. This will test processing speed, working memory, visuospatial processing and attention.

Acute Hangover Severity Scale (AHSS)Measured at 6, 8, and 24 hours after treatment

This is a 12-item questionnaire that rates the severity of a hangover from 0 to 120 with higher scores indicating worse hangover symptoms.
