- Maximum Effect of Inhaled Prochlorperazine on Cardiac Repolarization (QTc Interval Duration) at the Maximum Clinical Dose Compared to Placebo [ Time Frame: 1, 2, 5, 9, 15, 30 min, 1, 3, 6, 10 and 22 hr ]Time-matched differences in QTcI values between the maximum of the mean difference from baseline of the QTcI interval after time-matched placebo subtraction for treatment at 11 post-inhalation times.
- QTcI Versus Prochlorperazine Concentration [ Time Frame: 1, 2, 5, 9, 15, 30 min, 1, 3, 6, 10 and 22 hr ]QTcI @ median prochlorperazine concentration (3.75 mcg/mL) based on linear and nonlinear regression of QTcI versus time matched serum prochlorperazine concentrations
- Numbers and % of Subjects With QTcI > 450 ms [ Time Frame: 24 hours ]Numbers and Percents of Subjects with QTcI exceeding 450 ms
- Numbers and % of Subjects With QTcI > 480 ms [ Time Frame: 1, 2, 5, 9, 15, 30 min, 1, 3, 6, 10 and 22 hr ]Numbers and Percents of Subjects with QTcI exceeding 480 ms at any of the outcome measure time points
- Numbers and % of Subjects With QTcI Change > 30 ms [ Time Frame: 1, 2, 5, 9, 15, 30 min, 1, 3, 6, 10 and 22 hr ]Numbers and Percents of Subjects with QTcI increase from baseline exceeding 30 ms at any of the outcome measure time points
