Masking Details
The double-blind model is applied to the study. Only the adjudicator, responsible for the distribution of medication knew the different regimes. Calcium and Vitamin D/Calcium were packaged in boxes of identical appearance and labeled for each participant by name and number of the randomization program. The randomization and packaging of the drugs was done by an investigator who had no clinical involvement.
