Why are clinical trials important?
From acetaminophen to prescribed medicines: everyone takes medication sometimes. A great deal of research is needed for the development of new or better medicines. As a participant in a clinical trial, you help develop new or better medicines.
No new medicines without clinical research
Before a medication is marketed, it is researched extensively. That takes many years. Without clinical research there will be no new or better medicines.
Those new or better medicines are crucial to all of us, but even more so to patients who rely on medicines. You might need medicines in the future yourself.
2,000 participants per year
