• Abuse of alcohol or other substances.
• Current use of tobacco products.
• Subjects with a positive laboratory test result for hepatitis B, hepatitis C, HIV, controlled substances, cotinine or alcohol.
• Any prescription medication taken within 14 days (or 5 elimination half-lives, whichever is longer) of Study Day -2, or have taken any over-the-counter medications, including topical medications, vitamins, herbal or dietary supplements/remedies (e.g., Saint John's Wort or Milk Thistle), within 14 days of Study Day -2, or planned concomitant medication while in the study (except for acetaminophen up to 2g/day), with the exception of hormonal birth control medications or hormone replacement therapy for females.
