Conditions
Brief summary
The purpose of this study is to examine the efficacy of dose regimen of serratiopeptidase (serodase 5 mg) as a prospective, randomized, parallel, double blind Placebo- controlled study.
Detailed description
A prospective, randomized, parallel, double blind Placebo- controlled study to examine the efficacy of dose regimen of serratiopeptidase (serodase 5 mg) on 112 males and females volunteers in the treatment of inflammation after third molar surgery, comparing drug treatment vs placebo over a period of 20 weeks To assess the dose effectiveness of the dose regimen of Serodase 5 mg; the primary outcomes are trismus and swelling while inflammation is a secondary outcome.the expected duration of participants participation will be around 5 days divided into 4 visits, the time point of the measurment are (0,2,4 and 5 days). The results are expected to assess the improvement of the maximal interincisal distance, reduction of swelling and improvment in the sensation of post-operative pain.
Interventions
Serodase 5mg two tablets three times per day
Placebo two tablets three times per day

| Trimus by measuring the interincisal distance | 5 days | the increase in the interincisal distance will show a positive effect on the Trismus |
| Swelling by using The Laskin method | 5 days | the decrease in swelling will shows a positive effect on swelling based distances at predetermined time points . |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Post-operative pain | 5 days | pain will be measured using the numerical pain scale from (0-10) after surgery. |
