Conditions

Er zal bij deze studie niet gekeken worden naar de aandoening die het middel behandelt. De farmacodynamische effecten van morfine/ethanol op resting state networks in de hersenen zullen worden bestudeerd. not applicable

Interventions

Ethanol 10% w/v solution in 5% glucose will be delivered by intravenous infusion to maintain blood ethanol concentration near 0.60 g/L for 150 minutes. The target concentration of 0.60 g/L is expect
