Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Average Rhinoconjunctivitis Total Symptom Score (ARTSS)
Average Rhinoconjunctivitis Total Symptom Score during the pollen period while participant on treatment. Participants assessed daily, during the pollen period, 6 rhinoconjunctivitis symptoms (sneezing, rhinorrhea, nasal pruritus, nasal congestion, ocular pruritus and watery eyes) each symptom is scored as follows: 0: no symptoms, 1: mild symptoms, 2: moderate symptoms, 3: severe symptoms. The sum of the 6 symptoms is the Rhinoconjunctivitis Total Symptom Score (RTSS) (range 0-18). The lower the score, the better the outcome.
Pollen period (average of 38.6 days)
