             menstrual period and/or with a progesterone level at Day -5 to Day -3 that
             demonstrates a dip from baseline, indicating a menstrual bleed prior to dosing.

             infection; no pulmonary exacerbation requiring use of i.v. / oral / inhaled
             antibiotics, or oral corticosteroids; no change in pulmonary disease therapy; if on
             cycling antibiotics, these must be initiated within 2 weeks prior to randomisation; no
             acute (serious or non-serious) illness not related to cystic fibrosis; no infection
             with an organism associated with more rapid decline in pulmonary function (eg,

             metabolic, immunological, dermatologic, hematologic, neurological and psychiatric,
             oncological, coagulation or hormonal disorders as determined by medical history,
             examination, and clinical investigations at screening that may, in the opinion of the
             investigator, result in any of the following:

               -  Put the subject at risk because of participation in the study.

               -  Influence the results of the study.

             of clinical relevance, specifically volunteers with serum potassium > upper limit of

             evaluation can be repeated twice during screening.

             pressure outside the range of 90 to 140 mmHg, diastolic blood pressure outside the

             females) or any other relevant ECG finding at screening or prior to randomisation

             interval

          -  Intake of drugs with a long half-life (more than 24hrs) within 30 days or less than 10
