Participant flow
Recruitment details
Safety Population is divided according to the actual dosage received by the patient, not the randomization. The patient will be high-dose group if the highest dose ever used is above 95mg; otherwise (if the highest dose ever used is equal to or lower than 95 mg) he/she will be low-dose group.
Pre-assignment details
Safety population- patients who received at least 1 dose of investigational product. During initial 1 week run-in period subjects were treated with 47.5mg Betaloc ZOK®. Patients started to take investigational product before randomization therefore, number of subjects in Safety population (274) is greater than number of randomized and treated (251)
