What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Percentage of Patients With Recovery/Improvement in Health Status.

    Based on days 2-7 days of observation according to the patient's diary, and on days 3 and 7 according to the physician's examination.

    Time frame: On 2-7 days of observation

Secondary outcomes

  1. Changes in Fever.

    Fever changes over time (body temperature change on days 2-7 compared to baseline, based on patient diary data).

    Time frame: Baseline and days 2-7 of the observation

  2. Average Duration of Fever.

    Criteria of no fever - body temperature lower than 37.0° C for 24 hours

    Time frame: From the time of randomization until the time of recovery/improvement (days 1-7)

  4. Severity of Influenza Symptoms (Fever, Flu Non-specific and Nasal/Throat/Chest Symptoms) in Scores According to the Symptoms Severity Scale.

    The symptoms severity scale includes 14 symptoms: body temperature, non-specific symptoms (headache, chills, sweating, weakness, muscle pain, drowsiness), nasal/throat/chest symptoms (runny nose, stuffy nose, sneezing, sore throat, hoarseness, cough, chest pain). The severity of each non-specific and nasal/throat/chest symptom is scored on a 4-point scale (0=no symptom; 1=mild symptom; 2=moderate symptom; 3=severe symptom). The minimum value of each symptom is 0 points, and the maximum value is 4 points. The absolute body temperature (in degrees Celsius) is converted to relative units (or scores) using the following scale: ≤37.2С=0 points; 37.3-38.0С=1 point; 38.1-39.0С=2 points; ≥39.1С=3 points. The severity of symptoms is based on the physical examination of the patient by the physician on days 1, 3, and 7 and on the patient diary data on days 1-7.
