Recruitment Details
Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
Twenty-four (24) healthy, non-smoking, adult male and female volunteers consisting of the community at large were enrolled.

Pre-Assignment Details
Significant events and approaches for the overall study following participant enrollment, but prior to group assignment
Forty-four (44) subjects were screened, thirteen (13) were screen failures, five (5) were transferred to a different study, one (1) did not appear at check in at Period 1 and one (1) was not needed for the study.

Reporting Groups
  Description
Colchicine Alone, Colchicine With Verapamil HCl ER All subjects received each of the study treatments. At 8am on Day 1 after a 10 hour fast all subjects received a single dose of colchicine 0.6 mg followed by a 14 day washout period. At 8am on Days 15-18 all subjects received a dose of verapamil hydrochloride extended-release (verapamil HCl ER) 240 mg without regard to meals. At 8am on Day 19 after a fast of at least 10 hours all subjects received a single dose of colchicine 0.6 mg along with the final dose of verapamil HCl ER 240 mg.
