Primary

MeasureTime frame
Time to alleviation of symptom

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1) Time to continuous resolution of influenza symptoms (Cough, "Nasal discharge/nasal congestion", "body temperature") (last at least 72 hours) - It is defined as the time from the start of administration of the test drug until the symptoms of influenza disappear. Resolution of symptoms is defined as the time point of resolution of influenza symptoms when cough and "Nasal discharge/nasal congestion" are assessed as 0 (None) or 1 (mild) and the clinical condition of the more than 37.5 degrees body temperature has been maintained for at least 72 hours. 2) Time to return to normal temperature (last at least 12 hours) - It is defined as the time from the start of the test drug administration to normal temperature (more than 37.5 degrees). Recovery to normal body temperature is defined as the time to return to normal body temperature if the subject's self-measured body temperature falls below 37.5 degrees and has been present for at least 12 hours. 3) Time to continuous return to normal temperature (last at least 72 hours) - It is defined as the time from the start of the test drug administration to normal temperature (more than 37.5 degrees). Recovery to normal body temperature is the time to return to normal body temperature if the subject's self-measured body temperature falls below 37.5 degrees and has been present for at least 72 hours. 4) Whether pyrexia was resolved to normal more than 37.5 degrees at each time point - Percentage of patients with a temperature more than 37.5 degrees at each time point. 5) Body temperature at each time point - At each time point, the mean and 95 percentage confidence intervals for body temperature in each treatment group and the between-group difference in mean body temperature and its 95 percentage confidence interval should be calculated. 6) Time to resolution of 7 symptoms of influenza (Cough, "sore throat", "headache", "Nasal discharge/nasal congestion", "Fever or chills", "Pain in muscles or joints", "tiredness") - It is defin
