- PID From Pre-dose Baseline at 20 Minutes After First Injection. [ Time Frame: Baseline and 20 minutes after the first injection ]Pain intensity difference (PID) from pre-dose baseline at 20 minutes after first injection. It was assessed using an 11-point numerical rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 = 'no pain' to 10 = 'worst pain possible'.
- PID From Pre-dose Baseline at 10 Minutes After First Injection. [ Time Frame: Baseline and 10 minutes after the first injection ]Pain intensity difference (PID) from pre-dose baseline at 10 minutes after first injection. It was assessed using an 11-point numerical rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 = 'no pain' to 10 = 'worst pain possible'.
- PID From Pre-dose Baseline at 30 Minutes After First Injection. [ Time Frame: Baseline and 30 minutes after the first injection ]Pain intensity difference (PID) from pre-dose baseline at 30 minutes after first injection. It was assessed using an 11-point numerical rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 = 'no pain' to 10 = 'worst pain possible'.
- PID From Pre-dose Baseline at 60 Minutes After First Injection. [ Time Frame: Baseline and 60 minutes after the first injection ]Pain intensity difference (PID) from pre-dose baseline at 60 minutes after first injection. It was assessed using an 11-point numerical rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 = 'no pain' to 10 = 'worst pain possible'.
- PID From Pre-dose Baseline at 120 Minutes After First Injection. [ Time Frame: Baseline and 120 minutes after the first injection ]Pain intensity difference (PID) from pre-dose baseline at 120 minutes after first injection. It was assessed using an 11-point numerical rating scale (NRS) ranging from 0 = 'no pain' to 10 = 'worst pain possible'.
- Global Assessment of Efficacy by the Patient at 120 Minutes After the First Injection [ Time Frame: 120 minutes after the first injection ]Global assessment of efficacy by the patient. The patient was to assess the efficacy at 120 min after the first injection using a 4-point rating scale by answering the question: "How would you rate the effect of the study medication for relieving your acute gastric or intestinal spasm-like pain?" (0 = poor; 1 = fair; 2 = good; 3 = very good).
- Proportion of Patients Who Need the Second Injection [ Time Frame: 20 minutes after the first injection. ]Proportion of patients who need the second injection at 20 minutes after the first injection.
