    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    Improvement of nasal congestion and runny nose, after 48 hours of treatment
    Improvement is defined as a reduction of at least one point on the rating scale, in both nasal symptoms, after 48 hours of treatment. Participants were evaluated (self-assessment) for pain intensity by using a 4-point rating scale: 0=none, 1=mild, 2=moderate, and 3=severe.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    Overall score of nasal and extranasal symptoms (nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, watery eyes and itching)
    Clinical score of upper airway compromise
    Proportion of subjects who used at least once the rescue medication
    Safety descriptive about occurence of adverse events, evaluation of results of general physical examination.
    Collection of safety data throughout the whole study period
