Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

\- Female and male adult patients diagnosed with PAH or inoperable/recurrent/persistent CTEPH who have been switched from a PH treatment (i.e. Endothelin Receptor Antagonist(ERAs), Phosphodiesterase-5 inhibitor(PDE5i) or Prostacyclin Analog (PCA) to Adempas

Exclusion Criteria
