Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To assess the tolerability of ANTIRIN® spray 0,05mg in children 8-18years old and ANTIRIN® gtt 0,025mg in children 2-7 years old in comparison with placebo in both age groups .;Secondary Objective: To determine the safety of ANTIRIN® in children.;Primary end point(s): Symptoms recorded by patient/guardian: Group I: epistaxis, formation of eschars, more frequent sneezing Group II: epistaxis, formation of eschars, more frequent sneezing, feeling of dryness in nasal mucosa, burning sensation All symptoms are rated using four-point scale with following interpretation: 0 = absent symptoms (no sign/symptom evident) 1 = mild symptoms (sign/symptom clearly present, but minimal awareness; easily tolerated) 2 = moderate symptoms (definite awareness of sign/symptom that is bothersome but tolerable) 3 = severe symptoms (sign/symptom that is hard to tolerate; causes interference with activities of daily living and/or sleeping) VAS (visual analogue scale, 10 cm) will be used for patient/guardian recording of their opinion on the overall tolerance of the medication after finishing the treatment period.
