A Phase 1, Single-Center, Open-Label, Drug Interaction Study to Evaluate the Effect of Alcohol Ingestion on the Pharmacokinetics of Alpharma Branded Products Division Inc. (KADIAN) Morphine Sulfate Extended-Release Capsules in Healthy Adult Volunteers Under Fasting and Fed Conditions and Relative Bioavailability Assessment of an Immediate Release Morphine Solution

The objective of this study was to compare the single-dose relative bioavailability of
Alpharma Branded Products Division Inc. (KADIAN) 100 mg morphine sulfate extended-release
capsules when dosed with alcohol under fasting and fed conditions compared to water.

In addition, the pharmacokinetics of an immediate release solution following a 20 mg dose was
assessed for informational purposes and for possible modeling.

would interfere with absorption of the study drug.
