Effects of Varenicline on Cigarette Self Administration
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Varenicline and Placebo for Nicotine Dependence. Completed, enrolled 16 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The investigators hypothesize that varenicline will dose dependently attenuate the subjective effects of cigarettes after a period of abstinence. Also, treatment with varenicline will dose dependently weaken the severity of nicotine withdrawal symptoms. Thirdly, we hypothesize that treatment with varenicline will dose dependently decrease cigarette self-administration in the model proposed.
