(Low dose [=800 µg/day of beclomethasone dipropionate or equivalent] inhaled and topical steroids are allowed).
16. Subject has donated >450 mL blood or blood components within 30 days before the first dose of study drug. The investigator should instruct subjects who participate in this study to not donate blood or blood components for 90 days following the last dose of study drug.
