      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Random assignment of the patients to the intervention and control groups through the drawing of lots. To do this, we prepare two sheets and write "intervention" on one sheet and "control" on another. Then, by referring each patient, one of the sheets will be randomly taken and the patient will be assigned to the intervention or control group, Blinding description: The shape of the medications will be perfectly the same in the two groups. Therefore, patients will be unaware of the type of intervention. The physician who will examine the patients will not be aware of the intervention. Therefore, the trial will be run as double-blind.</study_design>
