SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 1, Days 1 to 11, Days 2 to 11 and each individual day 2 to 11 of each period

Population: All randomized participants who completed both periods of the study.

Participants rated their nausea using a 0 to 10 centimeter (cm) VAS where 0=least severe nausea to 10=most severe nausea. The average nausea index scores during Days 1 to 11 and Days 2 to 11 were calculated.
