Thrombolytic therapy is contraindicated in conditions where there is an increased risk of bleeding. This includes a history of intracranial hemorrhage (B), hemophilia (C), liver disease (D), which can impair clotting factors, and peptic ulcer disease (E), where there's a risk of gastrointestinal bleeding. Venous emboli (A) are actually a condition where thrombolytic therapy might be indicated, especially if the emboli are life-threatening.
