The study involves taking a single dose of a commonly used drug (reboxetine or rivastigmine) and completing simple tasks on a computer. You would be invited to the Department of Psychiatry (Warneford Hospital) for 2 study sessions (lasting 1.5 and 4 hours). During the second visit you will take one dose of reboxetine or rivastigmine or a placebo (dummy) tablet. After this we will ask you to complete some simple computer based tasks.
