Primary outcomes

  1. Relief of Nasal Congestion

    Time frame: 2 days

    Relief of nasal congestion will be measured on a scale of 0 to 3 (0 = without congestion and 3 total congestion)

Secondary outcomes

  1. Adverse Events

    Time frame: 2 days

    Safety of the drug will be assessed by observation of adverse events monitored for the type, frequency and intensity during the days of the follow-up.

    The evaluation of the heart frequency will also be a safety parameter.
