      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: A simple randomization method is used, in which the randomization unit is individual, and random sequence generation software (Random Number Generator software) is used. For concealment, non-transparent sealed envelopes with a random sequence is used . In this method, each random number created is recorded on a card and the cards are placed inside the envelopes in order.In order to maintain the random sequence of the envelopes on the outer surface, the numbering is done in the same order. Finally, the lids of the envelopes are glued and placed in a box. At the time of registration of the participants, based on the order of entry of the eligible participants into the study, one of the envelopes will be opened and the allocated group of that participant will be revealed, Blinding description: To blind the participants, in the control group, instead of acetazolamide, a placebo with the same shape, color, smell and taste as acetazolamide will be given. On the other hand, the outcome evaluator will not know which group received which drug.</study_design>
