11. A subject who has donated or had loss of ≥ 400 mL of blood within 8 weeks prior to start of administration of study drug
12. The value of aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) is greater than 1.25 times the upper limit of the reference range.
13. A subject who is unable to abstain from drinking alcoholic beverages throughout the study period.
14. A subject with a history of drug abuse, or a positive urine drug screening test
15. A subject who heavily takes caffeine or caffeine-containing products, or takes grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or grapefruit-containing products
