Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to evaluate pharmacokinetics (explores what the body does to the drug), safety and tolerability of single and multiple-dose of tapentadol in healthy participants.
Detailed description
This is an open-label (all people know the identity of the intervention), single-center, Phase 1 and, single and multiple-dose study of tapentadol tamper resistant prolonged-release formulation (TRF) 250 milligram (mg) tablet in healthy participants. The total study duration will be approximately of 29 days per participant. The study consists of 3 parts: Screening (that is, 21 days before study commences on Day 1); Treatment (single-dose of tapentadol on Day 1, and multiple dose from Day 4-6 \[followed by washout period of 24 hours\]); and End-of-study (Day 8). All the eligible participants will receive single oral dose of tapentadol TRF 250 mg on Day 1 and twice daily from Day 4-6 (total 5 doses). Participants will keep upright position until 4 hours after study drug administration. Study drug will be administered 30 minutes after breakfast in the morning. Blood samples will be collected for evaluation of pharmacokinetics at pre-dose and post-dose of study treatment. Participants' safety will be monitored throughout the study.
