Chelsea Therapeutics International, Ltd. (Nasdaq: CHTP) today announced results from an integrated dataset of two phase 3 studies, Study 301 and Study 302, which showed that patients treated with Northera (droxidopa) experienced improvements in their symptoms of Neurogenic Orthostatic Hypotension (also known as NOH or Neurogenic OH) as measured by the Orthostatic Hypotension Questionnaire (OHQ) composite score (p=0.001) and a number of individual symptoms, including dizziness (p=0.004).
