Name Time Method Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event During the Study 39 days
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event - Titration Scheme 1 25 days In Titration Scheme #1, MK-0941/matching placebo was initiated at 10-mg q.a.c. dose and increased on a daily basis in 10-mg q.a.c. increments on Titration Dose \[TD\] Days 1 to 4 of the Titration Phase 1 of the study.
Number of Participants Who Experienced an Adverse Event - Titration Scheme 2 25 days Titration Scheme #2 (Titration Phase, Days 1 to 4) was a flexible-dose titration scheme in which MK-0941/matching placebo was given at a dose determined by a pre-prandial plasma glucose concentration for the subsequent meal on the previous day of administration.
