Brief Summary:
This study will evaluate the behavioral effects of alcohol during maintenance on placebo, duloxetine, methylphenidate and duloxetine combined with methylphenidate using sophisticated human laboratory methods.
Detailed Description:
Prior to the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus and subsequent work-from-home orders from the state of Kentucky government, participants completed five overnight sessions at theUniversity of Kentucky Inpatient Research Unit in the medical center. The protocol was then changed to have five sessions scheduled to be completed on an outpatient basis in the late afternoon/early evening. This protocol change was enacted following the resumption of research in the fall of 2020.
For both the inpatient and outpatient portions of this protocol, the first of these sessions was a practice session to familiarize participants with experimental procedures. The subsequent four experimental sessions were conducted following one-week maintenance on a methylphenidate dose (0, 20, 40, and 60 mg/day; within-subjects factor) over the span of four weeks. Participants were assigned to either an active duloxetine arm (60 mg/day) or placebo arm (between-subjects factor) also for the span of four weeks. The outcome measures collected were the same for both the inpatient and outpatient aspects of the study.
Subjects received 30 mg of oral duloxetine one time daily. Note: only 2 subjects were enrolled in this arm prior to the arm being removed in the summer of 2020. Data from this arm will not be reported in order to avoid any HIPAA violation due to the small number of subjects in this arm.
Please note that at the initial execution of the study, there were three duloxetine arms: 0, 30, and 60 mg/day. Two participants received 30 mg/day. However, visual inspection of their data revealed that their data was not appreciably different from participants in the 60 mg/day duloxetine arm. Therefore, we have added the data from these two participants to the 60 mg/day duloxetine arm for all reported data.
