Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
A random number table would be used for randomization. Therapeutic regimens would be classified into 4 groups of A, B, C and D. We start from the first number on the right side of the table and move downward. If the first number on the right is 1 & 2, we prescribe regimen A, if it is 3 & 4, regimen B, if it is 5 & 6, regimen C, and if it is 7 & 8, regimen D. In case the number is 9 or 0, we leave them and consider the next number. We continue doing this until the sample size of the group is complete, and then move forward to the next group.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
The medical staff (doctors & nurses), the researcher and the clinician would be blinded by labeling the syrup bottles with unidentified content. The physician who provides the patients with the syrup bottles would be unaware of the content and randomly assign the patients to 4 groups through pre-designed block randomization form.
