Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to 1) evaluate the extent of absorption of a single dose of a pregabalin controlled release tablet following a 400 to 500 calorie, 600 to 750 calorie, or 800 to 1000 calorie medium-fat lunch as compared to pregabalin immediate release capsule 2) evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single dose of a pregabalin controlled release tablet following various sized lunches as compared to a single dose of the pregabalin immediate release capsule.

Detailed description

Evaluate the absorption, pharmacokinetics, safety/tolerability of a single dose of a pregabalin CR tablet under various conditions as compared to single dose of pregabalin IR capsule
