- Donation of blood within 60 days, or loss of greater than 400 ml of blood within 12 weeks of study initiation\]
- History of venous or arterial thromboembolic disease
- History of enhanced bleeding tendency or abnormal clotting test results.
- History of serious drug-related reactions, including hypersensitivity
- Inability to maintain stable without the use of asthma medication 2 weeks before start of the study
