2. Mean of triplicate set of seated BP readings at Screening, confirmed by 1 set of triplicate at Screening, if deemed necessary where systolic blood pressure (SBP) <90 or >140 mm Hg, and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) <50 or >90 mm Hg.
3. Cardiovascular event within 6 months prior to screening such as unstable angina, acute coronary syndrome, myocardial infarction, therapeutic coronary procedure (e.g., stent placement, Percutaneous Transluminal Coronary Angioplasty (PTCA), Coronary Artery By-pass Grafting (CABG)), stroke or transient ischemic attack.
4. Clinically significant ECG abnormalities.
5. Study participants who are pregnant at Screening are not eligible for this study.
6. Breast feeding must be discontinued if a subject wishes to participate in this study.
7. Positive test for hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or HIV found at Screening.
8. Positive urine drug test for illicit drugs at Screening.
9. Allergies to glucagon, glucagon-like products or to any of the excipients in the investigational formulation.

14. Subjects with any of the following abnormalities in clinical laboratory tests at Screening, confirmed by a single repeat, if necessary:

    • Total bilirubin > 1.5x upper limit of normal (ULN)
    • aspartate aminotransferase (AST/SGOT) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT/SGPT) ≥ 2.5x ULN.
    • Creatinine > 2.5x ULN.
15. History of regular alcohol consumption as defined by alcohol intake in a quantity exceeding 7 drinks per week for females or 14 drinks per week for males, where 1 drink = 5 ounces (150 mL) of wine or 12 ounces (360 mL) of beer or 1.5 ounces (45 mL) of hard liquor.
16. Participation in other studies involving administration of an investigational drug or device within 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer, before screening for the current study and during participation in the current study.
17. Blood donation of approximately 1 pint (500 mL) within 8 weeks prior to Screening.
18. Other severe acute or chronic medical or psychiatric condition or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk associated with study participation or investigational product administration or may interfere with the interpretation of study results and, in the judgment of the investigator, would make the subject inappropriate for entry into this study.
