5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The two purposes of this study are to determine what effect the chronic and moderate/heavy drinking of alcoholic beverages has on the blood level of bupropion and chlorzoxazone and their major breakdown products in the blood and on the stimulant effect of bupropion and to determine what effect a normal and common (25% frequency) genetic variation of a specific liver enzyme (that breaks down bupropion) has on the blood levels of bupropion and its major breakdown products in the blood and on the stimulant effect of bupropion. Two groups of volunteers will be recruited for this study: volunteers who drink moderate to heavy amounts of alcohol frequently and volunteers who usually do not drink alcohol. Volunteers will NOT be asked to change their drinking (or nondrinking) habits during the study.
