2. Consecutive use of opioid analgesics for any reason of more than 10 days within 3 months before screening;

3. Use of drugs with unknown half-lives that affect the analgesic effects within 14 days before randomization, or use of drugs that affect the analgesic effects with the interval between the last administration and randomization within 5 half-lives or duration of drug effect (calculated at maximum) (as per the packaging insert); such drugs include but are not limited to: sedative hypnotics (benzodiazepines [triazolam, diazepam, midazolam, etc.], non-benzodiazepines [zolpidem, zopiclone, zaleplon, etc.]), sedative anesthetics (anesthetic ether, nitrous oxide, sodium thiopental, ketamine, etomidate, etc.), glucocorticoids (dexamethasone hydrochloride, methylprednisolone, etc.), antiepileptics (carbamazepine, sodium valproate, etc.), anxiolytics (chlordiazepoxide, diazepam, etc.), antidepressants (imipramine, amitriptyline, etc.), and Chinese herbal medicines or Chinese patent medicines that may affect efficacy evaluation as judged by investigators;

4. Use of diuretics and compound drugs containing diuretics with the interval between the last administration and randomization shorter than 5 half-lives of the drug or the duration of response (whichever is longer).
