20. Subject is using potent inducers of CYP3A4 on Randomization Day 1or intends to use these medications during the study.
21. Subject is using medication metabolized by CYP2B6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19 and CYP3A4 and having a narrow therapeutic index on Day 1 or intends to use these medications during the study
22. Subject consumes more than 14 drinks containing alcohol per week. (One drink = 1.5 oz. of distilled spirits, or 12 oz. of beer, or 5 oz. of wine.).
