   • Clinically significant ventricular tachycardia, atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter, arrhythmia

   • Transient ischemic attack

   • Severe cerebrovascular diseases (e.g., stroke, cerebral infarction, cerebral hemorrhage)

7. Individuals requiring treatment due to dehydration from continuous diarrhea or vomiting, or those at risk of fluid volume depletion

8. Individuals unable to take medications orally, or with major gastrointestinal diseases or surgeries (e.g., gastrectomy, gastrointestinal bypass) that may affect drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, or excretion

9. Individuals with positive results from the serology tests at the Screening Visit (Visit 1):

   • Positive for HIV
   • Positive for HBsAg with HBV DNA ≥ 2000 IU/mL
   • Positive for Anti-HCV

10. Individuals with severe liver dysfunction at the Screening Visit (Visit 1) as follows:

    • AST or ALT > 3 times the upper limit of normal
