Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Investigation of Psychomotor and Cognitive Residual Effects of Single Oral Doses of Zolpidem Tartrate Extended Release 12.5 mg and Eszopiclone 3 mg Compared to Placebo in Healthy Young Volunteers, Using Flurazepam 30 mg as an External Comparator

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a crossover study, with 4 different treatments (Ambien, Lunesta, placebo, and flurazepam). The flurazepam arm always comes last due to the long washout period associated with it. The other 3 arms are randomized.
