Subjects with a history of uncomplicated depression may participate if in remission and on a stable dose of antidepressant medication for at least 2 months.
  • History of significant head trauma followed by persistent neurologic defaults or known structural brain abnormalities.
  • History of alcohol or substance abuse or dependence within the past year.
  • Acute infective sinusitis.
  • History or presence of an abnormality of the external or internal structures of the nose or nasopharynx, except for surgical correction of the nasal septum or a "broken nose" at least 2 years previously, or surgical repair of cleft palate when \<30 years of age.
  • Use of medications that are known to cause frank obtundation of cognition
  • Use of any approved or investigational medication for Alzheimer's Disease within 3 months of screening
  • History of or current significant systemic disease judged to interfere with the study evaluations or likely to be a safety concern.
  • Untreated sleep apnea or treatment for sleep apnea for \<3 months.
  • Abnormal clinical laboratory test results, specifically: Alanine transaminase (ALT) or aspartate transaminase (AST) \>2 х the upper limit of normal (ULN),Hematology \<80% the lower limit of normal, Creatinine ≥2 mg/dL and ,Other clinical laboratory values or vital signs considered clinically significant in the opinion of the Investigator.
  • Treatment with any investigational drug, biologic, or device within the previous 30 days prior to screening.
  • Surgery involving general anesthesia within the past 3 months or planned surgery requiring general anesthesia during the study period.
