      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Triple blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: After the recruitment of the subject on the basis of the inclusion and exclusion criteria,  centralized web-based randomization, through random allocation by  balanced block method, individuals are divided into four groups of controls and experimental. Using Random Sequence Generator, groups are created and people are placed in one of these four groups based on the reference sequence, Blinding description: Using placebos and actual drugs blind to the investigator,  patient, and care givers except for the person providing drug which is not associated with any of the three. This is a triple blinded study in which the investigator, the patient, and providers of the care all will be blind to the drug received by the patient.  The drugs or placebos prepared in 4 similar packages with different codes will be delivered to patient by a member of the team as pharmacist and the data regarding the nature of the packages will not be will be revealed to providers.</study_design>
