2.Participants with a disease process which is likely to be irreversible.
3.Liver function:
-Subjects who meet the following criteria at Baseline:
ALT =3xULN with Bilirubin =2xULN or Isolated bilirubin = 2xULN and >50% direct bilirubin or ALT =5xULN
Inclusion of subjects with liver function tests that fall outside these criteria must be discussed and agreed with the medical monitor.
-Current or chronic history of liver disease or known hepatic or biliary abnormalities (with the exception of benign conditions such as Gilbert's syndrome). Inclusion of subjects with neonatal hyperbilirubinaemia may be considered if appropriately managed according to local guidelines and must be discussed with the medical monitor.
4.Participants who require concurrent therapy with another influenza antiviral drug. Antiviral treatment including oseltamivir are prohibited to be co-administered with IV zanamivir. (Section 6.4 in the protocol).
5.Prior/Concurrent Clinical Study Experience
Participants who have participated in a study using an investigational drug within 30 days prior to Baseline.
