      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: A random number table would be used for randomization. Therapeutic regimens would be classified into 4 groups of A, B, C and D. We start from the first number on the right side of the table and move downward. If the first number on the right is 1 &amp; 2, we prescribe regimen A, if it is 3 &amp; 4, regimen B, if it is 5 &amp; 6, regimen C, and if it is 7 &amp; 8, regimen D. In case the number is 9 or 0, we leave them and consider the next number. We continue doing this until the sample size of the group is complete, and then move forward to the next group, Blinding description: The medical staff (doctors &amp; nurses), the researcher and the clinician would be blinded by labeling the syrup bottles with unidentified content. The physician who provides the patients with the syrup bottles would be unaware of the content and randomly assign the patients to 4 groups through pre-designed block randomization form.</study_design>

Direction for use: the consumption dose per serving should be diluted in 250 cc of water and consumed orally. Equipment: no special equipment is required. Patients will be provided with the medicine placed in 250 cc bottles along with a sterilized 15 cc falcon tube to measure the consumption dose. Consumption duration: hospitalization period. Manufacturing company: laboratory of Sodour Ahrar Shargh Knowledge-based Company. Intervention 3: Intervention group 3 – Medicine: a package of BCc1 &amp; Hep-s. Number &amp; content: two separate 250 cc bottles for BCc1 &amp; Hep-s, each containing 200 cc medicine in the form of syrup. Chemical mixture: polymerized organic acid using nanochelating technology. Density: 500 mg of chelated mixture per 2 cc for BCc1 &amp; 500 µg of chelated selenium mixture per 2 cc for Hep-s. Consumption dose: 2 servings per day for BCc1 (6 cc per serving). One serving per day for Hep-s (12 cc on the first 3 days and 6 cc from day 4 onwards). Direction for use: the consumption dose per serving should be diluted in 250 cc of water and consumed orally. Equipment: no special equipment is required. Patients will be provided with the medicine placed in 250 cc bottles along with a sterilized 15 cc falcon tube to measure the consumption dose. Consumption duration: hospitalization period. Manufacturing company: laboratory of Sodour Ahrar Shargh Knowledge-based Company. Intervention 4: Control group – Medicine: ORS powder. Number &amp; content: a 250 cc bottle containing 200 cc placebo in the form of syrup. Chemical mixture: glucose &amp; sodium bicarbonate. Density: 50 mg ORS per 2 cc. Consumption dose: 3 servings per day. 2 cc per serving. Direction for use: the consumption dose per serving should be diluted in 250 cc of water and consumed orally. Equipment: no special equipment is required. Patients will be provided with the medicine placed in 250 cc bottles along with a sterilized 15 cc falcon tube to measure the consumption dose. Consumption duration: hospitalization period. Manufacturing company: Rouz Darou Company.</i_freetext>
