    Simple randomization, random number table The two groups of the trial according to a previous studies and by taking into account two-sided significance level of 0.05 and power of 99%, the sample size is calculated 20 patients in each group. Considering the possibility of failure to follow up and patients’ drop out, in order to increase the power of the study, the sample size is calculated 22 patients in each group to be totally 44 patients. Simple randomization is done by Randomizer software, before starting the trial. Patients who have inclusion criteria, are randomly assigned into one of the two groups: mucutin spray or Benzydamine Hydrochloride spray
    Simple randomization is done by Randomizer software, before starting the trial. Patients who have inclusion criteria, are randomly assigned into one of the two groups based on their selected number: mucutin spray or Benzydamine Hydrochloride spray.

    تصادفی سازی ساده ،جدول اعداد تصادفی حجم نمونه با استفاده از فرمول آماری که در آن سطح معناداری =α0.05 در نظر گرفته شده است و توان آزمون 0.801-β= در نظر گرفته شد. این حجم نمونه به منظور شناسایی اختلافی به اندازه 4.5d= (در میانگین تعداد گر گرفتگی ها (با توجه به کاهش 50 درصدی در تعداد گرگرفتگی)) با انحراف معیار 6.3s= (به دست آمده از مطالعات پیشین) محاسبه شده است. تعداد نمونه مورد نیاز در هر گروه 20 نفر به دست آمد که با در نظر گرفتن 10 درصد امکان ریزش، در هر گروه 22 نفر به عنوان نمونه در نظر گرفته خواهد شد. تصادفی سازی نمونه ها به روش تصادفی ساده توسط جدول اعداد تصادفی در مورد بیمارانی که شرایط ورود به مطالعه را دارند، صورت می پذیرد. بدین صورت که بیماران بر حسب تصادف، در یکی از 2 گروه دریافت کننده ی اسپری موکوتین یا گروه اسپری بنزید امین هیدروکلراید قرار می‏گیرند.
    تخصیص تصادفی ساده با استفاده از نرم افزار کامپیوتری قبل از شروع مطالعه مورد استفاده قرار می گیرد. بدین صورت که بیماران دارای شرایط انتخاب، بر حسب عددی که بطور تصادفی انتخاب می شود، در یکی از 2 گروه دریافت کننده ی اسپری موکوتین یا گروه اسپری بنزید امین هیدروکلراید قرار می‏ گیرند. حجم نمونه با استفاده از فرمول آماری که در آن سطح معناداری =α0.05 در نظر گرفته شده است و توان آزمون 0.801-β= در نظر گرفته شد. این حجم نمونه به منظور شناسایی اختلافی به اندازه 4.5d= (در میانگین تعداد گر گرفتگی ها (با توجه به کاهش 50 درصدی در تعداد گرگرفتگی)) با انحراف معیار 6.3s= (به دست آمده از مطالعات پیشین) محاسبه شده است. تعداد نمونه مورد نیاز در هر گروه 20 نفر به دست آمد که با در نظر گرفتن 10 درصد امکان ریزش، در هر گروه 22 نفر به عنوان نمونه در نظر گرفته خواهد شد.
