Study to Evaluate The Effect Of Sertraline on the Cardiac Repolarization in Healthy Subjects (Zoloft)

A Phase 1, Single Center Randomized, Three-way Crossover, Double-blinded, Placebo- And Moxifloxacin-controlled Thorough Qt (Tqt) Study To Determine The Effects Of Sertraline (Zoloft (Registered)) On The Cardiac Repolarization In Healthy Subjects

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate a lack of effect of sertraline on QTc intervals relative to time-matched placebo in healthy subjects
