Primary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Facial Pain/Pressure/Fullness on NRS at 2 Hours Post-Dose

    Time frame: Baseline, 2 hours post-dose

    Facial pain/pressure/fullness was assessed using an NRS score ranging in integers from 0 to 10, with 0 being "no facial pain/pressure/fullness" and 10 being "worst imaginable facial pain/pressure/fullness." Higher scores signified worse condition.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Change From Baseline in Total Nasal Symptom Score (TNSS) at 2 Hours Post-Dose

    Time frame: Baseline, 2 hours post-dose

    TNSS was calculated as the sum of 3 symptom scores: facial pain/pressure/fullness, score ranged from 0 (no facial pain/pressure/fullness) to 10 (worst imaginable facial pain/pressure/fullness); nasal obstruction (congestion), score ranged from 0 (no nasal obstruction (congestion) to 10 (worst imaginable nasal obstruction (congestion); and nasal discharge, score ranged from 0 (no nasal discharge) to 10 (worst nasal discharge). TNSS overall score ranged from 0 (no nasal symptom) to 30 (worst nasal symptom); higher scores signified worse condition.

  2. Change From Baseline in Nasal Obstruction (Congestion) at 2 Hours Post-Dose

    Time frame: Baseline, 2 hours post-dose

    Nasal obstruction (congestion) severity was assessed using a NRS ranging in integers from 0 (no nasal obstruction [congestion]) to 10 (worst imaginable nasal obstruction [congestion]). Higher scores signified worse condition.

  3. Change From Baseline in Nasal Discharge at 2 Hours Post-Dose

    Time frame: Baseline, 2 hours post-dose

    Nasal discharge severity was assessed using a NRS ranging in integers from 0 (no nasal discharge) to 10 (worst imaginable nasal discharge). Higher scores signified worse condition.

  4. Percentage of Participants With Headache Pain Relief at 2 Hours Post-Dose

    Time frame: 2 hours post-dose

    Headache pain relief was defined as a headache pain level of none or mild at 2 hours post-dose on a 4-point Likert scale (0 = None; 1 = Mild; 2 = Moderate; 3 = Severe).

  5. Percentage of Participants Who Used Rescue Medication Within 24 Hours Post-dose

    Time frame: Through 24 hours post-dose

    Post 2 hours after dosing with study medication and after the 2-hour assessments were completed on the e-diary, participants were permitted to use the following rescue medications (non-study medications) such as: acetaminophen or aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen (or any other type of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug [NSAID]), oral antihistamines (non- sedating), oral decongestants, topical nasal decongestants, topical nasal anticholinergics.
