Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Proportion of participants who show improvement in symptoms of nasal obstruction and/or congestion

    Proportion of participants who show improvement in symptoms of nasal obstruction and/or congestion, obtained through the 4-point Likert scale, 3 days after the start of treatment, compared to baseline, between the experimental drug and the comparator drug. For control purposes, this assessment will also be carried out between the experimental drug arm and the placebo.
