Exclusion Criteria
  • HEALTHY VOLUNTEERS
  • Clinically relevant abnormal history or physical findings (e.g. cancer) at the screening assessment, which could interfere with the objectives of the study or the safety of the subject's participation
  • Clinically relevant abnormalities of laboratory values or ECG at the screening evaluation
  • Presence of acute or chronic illness sufficient to invalidate the subject's participation in the study or to make it unnecessarily hazardous
  • Blood pressure and heart rate in seated position at the screening examination outside the ranges 90-150 mmHg systolic, 40-90 mmHg diastolic: heart rate 40-100 beats/min
  • History of drug or alcohol abuse (alcohol abuse is defined as intake of more than 28 units weekly in men and more than 21 units weekly in women)
  • Alcohol intake within 48 hours prior to visit
  • Evidence of drug abuse on urine testing at study entry
  • The subject smokes 10 cigarettes or more, or the equivalent, per day and is unable to refrain from smoking during 3 days prior to the first dosing day and during the confinement period
  • Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), Hepatitis C antibodies or HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) antibodies
  • History of significant drug allergy or drug hypersensitivity
  • SUBJECTS WITH DIABETES
  • Use of any drug (except for oral hypoglycaemic agents (OHAs)) which in the Investigator's opinion could interfere with the blood glucose level (e.g. insulin, systemic corticosteroids, thiazides)
  • Recurrent severe hypoglycaemia as judged by the Investigator
  • Clinically relevant abnormal history or physical findings (e.g. cancer) at the screening assessment, which could interfere with the objectives of the study or the safety of the subject's participation
  • Clinically relevant abnormalities of laboratory values or ECG at the screening evaluation
  • Presence of acute or chronic illness sufficient to invalidate the subject's participation in the study or to make it unnecessarily hazardous

  • History of drug or alcohol abuse (alcohol abuse is defined as intake of more than 28 units weekly in men and more than 21 units weekly in women)
  • Alcohol intake within 48 hours of visit
  • Evidence of drug abuse on urine testing at study entry
  • The subject smokes 10 cigarettes or more, or the equivalent, per day and is unable to refrain from smoking during 3 days prior to the first dosing day and during the confinement period
