This will also be determined by having no clinically significant abnormal findings on physical examination, which includes an electrocardiogram (ECG), which in the opinion of the Investigator would jeopardize the safety of the subject or impact on the validity of the study results.
* Venous Access: Volunteers with adequate venous access in their left and right arm to allow collection of blood samples and drug administration.
* Language: Fluent in the English language.
* Informed Consent: Have voluntarily given written informed consent to participate in this study.
