Randomization (investigator's opinion)
Randomized
Randomization description
Randomization of patients will be done by the responsible researcher using Excel software. Randomization will be done by creating blocks. Blocks will be considered in variable sizes including 4 or 6 or 8 patients. In order to randomly assign patients in the two groups receiving medication and placebo, a specific code including 2 letters and a number will be assigned to each patient. This code will be unique to each patient (for example, code AB1 for patient number one). Only the researcher in charge of the study will know that each code is assigned to the drug or placebo group.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Double blinded
Blinding description
The drugs required for the participants in the study will be fully covered at the research site will be available to the participants in the study. Study participants and evaluators of the final outcome of patients will not be aware of the drug or placebo.
