Non-randomizedParallel-groupTriple-blindTreatment

Summary

Capsaicin nasal spray is used in daily practice against IR without knowledge about the exact mechanisms involved in this treatment. Therefore, this study aims to address this issue by studying the functional (electrophysiologic) changes after specific stimulations in IR patients and healthy controls before and after capsaicin/placebo treatment.
