At least 12 hours later, when the swallowing-induced pain score ≥4, a doxepin solution spray was administered to the posterior pharyngeal wall 10 minutes before eating.\n\nThe swallowing-induced pain and incidence of adverse events were assessed at 10 minutes, 20 minutes, 30 minutes, and 1 hour after medication using a patient-reported questionnaire, and safety evaluation was conducted 1 day after treatment.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n1.
