And another person (rather than the doctor-researcher-patient) would do the randomization. Accordingly, patients will receive each treatment based on the randomized sequence.

Another person out of the study will distribute the desired medicine to the patients based on the randomization sequence. Therefore, the physician, the outcome assessor, and the analyzer will remain unaware of the drug's content. According to the mentioned points, this study will be double-blind.</study_design>
