Participants who have taken prescription medication may still be entered into the study, if, in the opinion of the Investigator, the medication received will not interfere with the study procedures or compromise safety.

- A history of alcohol or substance dependence or abuse within the last 12 months from Visit 1.
- Has a current or recent history of clinically significant suicidal ideation within the past 6 months, corresponding to a score of 4 or 5 for ideation on the C-SSRS, or a history of suicidal behavior within the past year, as validated by the C-SSRS at screening or treatment visit.
- Has a history of, or presents (in the opinion of the Investigator) with, significant neurological or psychiatric conditions (such as stroke, traumatic brain injury, seizures, space occupying lesions, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, vascular dementia, transient ischemic attack, schizophrenia, blackouts requiring hospitalisation).
- A planned medical treatment within the study period that might interfere with the study procedures.
