Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
The change in mean abdominal symptom score on the PEI-Q will be summarized at Day 30 using descriptive measures as well as 95 percent CI of the mean. A paired t-test (if data normal) or Wilcoxon signed-rank test will be performed at the 5 percent level to assess the significance of the change from baseline
Time Frame: 30 Days
Secondary Outcomes
- The change in mean abdominal symptom score at Day 15 and change(in mean bowel movement symptom score on the PEI-Q at Days 15 and 30 will be analyzed)
