    Document: Control medication, Vitamin C 250mg (Healtheries, Vitaco Health NZ Ltd, Auckland, New 173 Zealand) daily for five days. The randomisation schedule was computer generated by the study 174 statistician, who was not involved in study recruitment, procedures, or data collection. Participants allocated to the control group received their first 250mg Vitamin C tablet in the CTU 213 after randomisation, and then at home for a further four days. Low-dose Vitamin C was used as 214 a control. As therapeutic use of Vitamin C after symptoms develop has not been shown to 215 consistently reduce the duration of colds or improve cold symptoms,[14] participants were not 216 expected to derive benefit above that obtained by the placebo effect. The low dose of vitamin C 217 used in this study is freely available in pharmacies in New Zealand but is unlikely to be of 218 benefit when taken after symptoms develop, as opposed to regular supplementation. 219
