Exclusion criteria

1. Females who are pregnant, breast-feeding or have positive pregnancy test 2. History of hypersensitivity to granisetron or its analogs 3. Subjects with nasal ulcer, septal perforation, or other nasal conditions that may interfere with nasal administration and determined by the investigator to be ineligible 4. Subjects with a QT interval greater than 500 ms or with acute ischemic changes or cardiac abnormality predisposing to arrhythmia on screening electrocardiogram (ECG) or by history 5. Evidence or history of clinically significant hematological, renal, endocrine, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, hepatic, psychiatric, neurologic, or other significant disease or clinical findings at screening and determined by the investigator to be ineligible 6. Subjects with a history of drug and/or alcohol abuse within 12 months prior to dosing 7. Inability to read and/or sign the consent form 8.
