      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Randomization method: simple randomization
Using random allocation software, patients were randomly assigned to one of two intervention and control groups, Blinding description: Participants (patients who are candidates for surgery due to chronic rhinosinusitis with polyps), clinical caregivers
In both groups, in the form of drops with the same shape, color and dosage for 9 months, so that patients and doctors will be unaware of how the drops are allocated to the intervention and control groups, and the drops will be numbered, which only the data analyzer will know about the numbering.</study_design>
      <phase>N/A</phase>
      <hc_freetext>Condition 1: Nasal polyps. Condition 2: Chronic rhino sinusitis.</hc_freetext>
      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: In the intervention group, tacrolimus 0.03% topical drops are prescribed. These drugs are continued daily until the end of the study (9 months). Patients who are treated with tacrolimus drops, if they experience side effects and sensitivity during the first, third and seventh days after the start of treatment, they will be excluded from the study and treated with steroid drops. It should be noted that Prograf ampoules (5mg/1ml) are used to make tacrolimus drops. In this formulation, 3 ampoules with a volume of 3 ml containing 15 mg of tacrolimus are mixed with 47 ml of sterile phosphate buffer and the resulting solution is divided into sterile 5 ml drop containers and will be available to patients. These drops should be stored in a refrigerator at a temperature of 4 degrees Celsius. Intervention 2: Control group: In the control group, betamethasone corticosteroid drops (manufacturer of Sinadaro) are prescribed (routine and usual treatment). These drugs will be continued daily (5 drops every morning) until the end of the study (9 months). Patients who are treated with tacrolimus drops, if they experience side effects and allergies during the first, third and seventh days after the start of treatment, they will be excluded from the study and treated with corticosteroid drops (betamethasone).</i_freetext>
