10. Individuals who donated blood within 2 months or donated blood components within 1 month, or received a blood transfusion within 1 month before the scheduled first dose of the investigational product
11. Individuals who have consumed excessive caffeine (> 5 units/day) or cannot abstain from consuming caffeine/caffeine-containing foods (such as coffee, tea, carbonated beverages, coffee-flavored milk, energy drinks, etc.) from 3 days before the expected first dose until the end of the clinical trial (PSV)
12. Individuals who engage in persistent alcohol consumption (> 21 units/week, 1 unit = 10 g of pure alcohol) or cannot abstain from alcohol consumption from 3 days before the expected first dose of the investigational product until the end of the clinical trial (PSV) (1 glass (250 mL) of beer (5%) = 10 g, 1 glass (50 mL) of soju (20%) = 8 g, 1 glass (125 mL) of wine (12%) = 12 g)

15. Individuals who have a pregnancy planning during the entire clinical trial and up to 90 days after the last administration of the investigational product or do not agree to use one or more medically acceptable contraceptive methods. The medically acceptable contraceptive methods are as follows:
