What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Mean change from baseline in NIS(Nasal Index Score) over the 4-week treatment period

    Evaluation : from baseline(1-week prior to treatment)over the 4-week treatment(1-week prior to patients' last visit). NIS : Sum of 4 individual scores for Nasal congestion, Rhinorrhea, Sneezing, and Nasal itching, each rated by patients daily on a 4-point scale \[Score 0(best) to 3(worst)\].

    Time frame: 4 week treatment period (from baseline through the end of week 4)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Assessing improvement of symptom by physician

    Time frame: from baseline through the end of week 4

  2. Assessing improvement of symptom by patient

    Time frame: from baseline through the end of week 4

  3. Mean change of Individual NIS

    Time frame: from baseline through the end of week 4

  4. Ratio distribution of NIS at end of week 4

    Percentage of each NIS score.

    Time frame: from baseline through the end of week 4

  5. Cure rate

    Time frame: from baseline through the end of week 4

  6. Cure rate for each symptom

    Time frame: from baseline through the end of week 4

  7. Use of rescue medication

    Time frame: from baseline through the end of week 4

  8. Change of Instantaneous NIS

    Time frame: from baseline through the end of week 4
