- Adverse Events Leading to Premature Discontinuation of Study Drug [ Time Frame: Double-blind period: from the first inhalation of study drug to discontinuation. Open-label period: from the start of open-label medication to discontinuation, mean duration of exposure was 284.5 days. ]Number of adverse events leading to discontinuation of study treatment
- Patients With Adverse Events Leading to Premature Discontinuation of Study Drug [ Time Frame: Double-blind period: from the first inhalation of study drug to discontinuation. Open-label period: from the start of open-label medication to discontinuation, mean duration of exposure was 284.5 days. ]Number of patients with adverse events leading to discontinuation of study treatment
- Average Inhalation Time [ Time Frame: 12 weeks ]Average inhalation time of iloprost during the double-blind period (i.e., the sum of the duration of each inhalation divided by the number of inhalations during the double-blind period)
