      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: In this study, we used Random Allocation software for randomization. The random sequence of samples was performed equally as Intervention and control groups using this software. For allocation concealment, sealed envelopes were used. In this method, each of the random sequences written on a card and is placed in the envelopes, respectively. Finally, the lid of the envelopes is glued and placed in a box, respectively. At the registration time, based on the order in which eligible participants enter the study, one of the envelopes of their choice will be opened and their assigned group will be revealed, Blinding description: The capsules were packaged in the same shape and coded by an expert one in the research center using Random Allocation Software.  Patients, and evaluators assess the outcome, are not aware of the contents of the package and grouping, and samples were delivered to patients randomly using Allocation concealment.</study_design>
