No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Description: Capsaicin (8- methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide) has been demonstrated to have a therapeutic effect in idiopathic rhinitis. We hypothesize that capsaicin has a therapeutic effect on rhinogenic headaches, in addition to the previously studied decongestive effects. This study aims to evaluate capsaicin impact on headaches attributed to V1, V2 distribution of the sinonasal cavity. This study is a randomized, double-blinded, parallel trial.
