Medical Drug Trial Volunteer

Get paid to undergo medicine and health care trials

Medical Drug Trial Volunteer Volunteers to medical, medicine, health care products and drug trials get paid for their time and may have expenses like travelling paid.

There are many incentives for becoming a medical trial volunteer. There is the financial incentive because you get paid for undergoing trials. Some do the research and work with doctors, pharmacists and scientists because they want to give something back to the National Health Service, perhaps because a family member or themselves were ill and received excellent treatment. Others want to help find a cure for specific illnesses and diseases or are testing new medication in the hope that it will help an existing condition. Many are medical and nursing students who fund or supplement their grants for their courses and studies.






How To Apply As A Drug Trialist


A clinical trial volunteer should apply at their local hospital or teaching college or university. These UK clinical research organisations establishments will follow ethical and strictly-regulated UK clinical trials procedures. This will give you the assurance of close monitoring, comfort, safety, professional care and attention during any tests, procedures and whilst you are taking testing drugs.

These UK establishments will follow strict guidelines which includes the equipment or drugs having already undergone research and then a licence application being vetted and then granted from an Ethics Committee.







Reputable drug and clinical trials will have publicly registered at organisations such as controlled trials and clinical trials. You can access information at www.controlled-trials.com and at www.clinicaltrials.gov

The National Library for Health may have information about the drug or therapy you may be asked to help test. Information can be accessed at www.library.nhs.uk

No qualifications or skills are needed to be a medical or drug trial volunteer. You will need to be aged over 18 and there is generally no upper age restrictions provided you are in good health.

You will need to undergo a general health check and examination, declare any medication or health treatment you are undergoing or have undergone recently. This may include pulse, blood pressure and heart rhythm checks.

You may need to stay in the testing area for several hours, overnight or even a few days. You will get free food and entertainment in addition to your pay. This insures your safety while you are testing a new pill for example. The scientists and doctors can monitor how your body signs change as the medicine works and how it interacts with certain foods or conditions.







Benefits Of Working As A Medical And Medicine Trial Volunteer


The benefits of working as a medical and medicine trial volunteer is that you will be paid well and will be helping to develop new treatments and adapt existing medical science.


Disadvantages Of Being A Drug Volunteer


The disadvantages are that some medicines and treatment have never been treated or tested on humans before. You may experience unpleasant or potentially dangerous side effects. However these are rare and there has usually been much testing of the treatment and drugs in the laboratories before being tested on live healthy humans. You will be in the care of trained professionals who will monitor your progress and health. Do ask questions and make sure you get a full explanation of what you are undergoing. Although you will have signed forms you should have the right to stop testing at any stage, though this may affect you payment as a drug and medical trial volunteer.

Perhaps the most infamous phase one drug trial was the 13 March 2006 drug trial for the German company TeGenero. It took place at an independent testing unit at Northwick Park Hospital in London. The drug code name was called TGN1412 and sadly the drug testers had a reaction to the drug within minutes of taking the drugs. This lead to multiple organ failures and the trialists had to be rushed to intensive care. Such events are rare - over 90,000 people perform drug trials each year and are considered safe.
