Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. To compare the single-dose pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of lorcaserin in the obese or overweight Elderly (> 65) to those obtained from the obese or overweight Adult (18-65) []

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. To assess the safety and tolerability of a single oral dose of lorcaserin in obese or overweight Elderly (> 65) subjects and obese or overweight Adult (18-65) subjects. []
