Subject Global Satisfaction at End of Treatment
On day 29 (or at early termination), participants were asked about their degree of satisfaction with constipation and abdominal symptoms from the start of study drug dosing to Day 28 (or early termination visit). The grades were as follows: 1, markedly worsened; 2, moderately worsened; 3, slightly worsened; 4, unchanged; 5, slightly improved; 6, moderately improved; and 7, markedly improved.
Time frame: Day 29, or at early termination
