- Chronic or relevant acute infections
- History of allergy/hypersensitivity (including drug allergy) which is deemed relevant to the trial as judged by the investigator
- Intake of drugs with a long half-life (>24 hours) within at least one month or less than 10 half-lives of the respective drug prior to administration or during the trial
- Use of drugs which might reasonably influence the results of the trial based on the knowledge at the time of protocol preparation within 10 days prior to administration or during the trial
- Participation in another trial with an investigational drug within two months prior to administration or during the trial
- Alcohol abuse (more than 60 g/day)
- Drug abuse
- Within 5 days of study medication no intake of grapefruit, grapefruit juice, or products containing grapefruit juice, Seville oranges, garlic supplements, or St. John's Wort

- Females of child bearing potential who are pregnant, breast feeding or who are either not surgically sterile or are sexually active and not using an acceptable form of contraception as either the oral contraceptives since at least two months or the double barrier method, i.e. intrauterine device with spermicide and condom for the male partner
- Male subjects will not agree to minimise the risk of female partners becoming pregnant from the first dosing day until 3 months after the completion of the post study medical. Acceptable methods of contraception comprises barrier contraception and a medically accepted contraceptive method for the female partner (intra-uterine device with spermicide, hormonal contraceptive since at least two month)
- Planned surgeries within four weeks following the end-of study examination
- Intake of medication, which influences the blood clotting, i.e., acetylsalicylic acid, cumarin etc.
- The subject is not able to understand and comply with protocol requirements, instructions and protocol-stated restrictions
- Vulnerable subjects (e.g. persons kept in detention).
