      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: The random allocation method will be used and the patients are placed in the intervention or control group using the block random allocation method with blocks of four. By assigning the letter A to the intervention group and the letter B to the control group, six states AABB, BBAA, BABA, ABBA, BAAB, and ABAB are written on separate sheets and are thrown into a container, and each time one of the sheets is taken out and it's written composition is noted and the sheet is thrown into the container again. Since the sample size in this study is 60, this procedure is repeated 15 times and each time the combination written on each sheet is noted in the sequence of the previous sheet. Then, a number from one to sixty is assigned to each of the letters in the order of the letters noted one after the other, and each of the letters are placed in an envelope and the specific number of each letter is written on the envelope. Every time which a subject is selected, one of the envelopes is opened. According to the number written on the envelope, the patient is introduced into the intervention or control group, Blinding description: Participants and healthcare providers are blinded. The drug and placebo are packaged in similar packages. The treatment group and placebo group will not be aware of the type of intervention they receive.</study_design>
