Use of any prescription drug or over-the-counter medications or herbal preparations within 14 days or 5-times the elimination half-life (whichever was longer) prior to starting the study (except for acetaminophen; birth control pills; implantable or injectable birth control; and estrogen, testosterone, and/or progesterone replacement in menopausal women).
Unwilling to abstain from smoking for the duration of the study.
Any clinically significant, underlying abnormalities in rhythm, conduction, or morphology of the resting ECG that may have interfered with the interpretation of QTc interval changes.
