2. History of gastrointestinal surgery within one year of the screening visit.
3. Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that could have increased the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or could have interfered with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, made the subject inappropriate for entry into the study.

5. A positive pregnancy test at screening and upon admission to the clinical research unit, or subject is lactating, if the subject is female.
