<h2 class = 'uawtitle'>Get paid to take drugs</h2><br />
<div style='font-style:italic;' class='uawbyline'>by Barry Thomas</div><br /><br />
<div class='uawarticle'>I first found out about the chance to make money from drug testing when I had a summer job as a punter. I had just finished my undergraduate degree and like almost all students I had a large amount of debt and wastrying to find a way to supplement my income.<br />
<br />
I discovered that some of the chaps who I was working with were taking part in drug trials for money being run at a nearby drug testing research centre. They told me that it was possible to make hundreds if not thousands of pounds for each trial that successfully volunteered for. It sounded almost too good to be true but I was determined that I was going to find out for myself.<br />
<br />
I got the details of the clinical research unit from my friends and picked up the phone. I received an application pack with numerous forms to fill in detailing things such as my health and medical history any allergies that I had, next of kin details, etc, etc and the details of my GP plus a consent form to permit them access to my medical history. All of this information is required by the clinical research units because they have to know your medical history to ensure that they are only testing on healthy volunteers who don't have conditions that could be aggravated by the new drugs that they are testing.<br />
<br />
After filling in all the required details, I returned the forms to the address supplied wondering how long it would take until I got a reply. Being the impetuous youth that I was, I decided to apply to both of the medical research units that I had found out about just in case I got rejected by one. Eventually I got a letter from them after they had been through my forms and processed all of the information. They asked me to go to the unit for a comprehensive medical check up to make sure I was fit and healthy enough to be a volunteer.<br />
<br />
They carried out tests such as lung capacity, ECG (electro-cardio graph), various blood tests to check liver function, cholesterol levels, etc - all to make sure I was in good health. If nothing else, I was getting the kind of health check up that would have cost a few hundred pounds to get done privately and would be very difficult to get hold of on the NHS.<br />
<br />
One of the research units rejected me on the basis that my eye pressure was too high. The other unit didn't even measure this and they accepted me on to their volunteer panel on the basis of my medical results.<br />
<br />
Having been accepted I waited eagerly for the details to be sent through of the first trial that I could volunteer for. When it finally arrived, it detailed the drug being tested, the possible side effects, the length of the trial and the number of visits to the clinical research unit that would be required and (of the most interest to me) the financial compensation that would be paid for taking part (let's face it, no one does these trials out of a desire to further medical science, they do them for the money!).<br />
<br />
In addition to having a medical to become eligible to be a volunteer for medical testing you also have to have a medical for each individual drug trial that you want to take part in. The first few times I went for these (after being sent the details of a new medical trial that was taking place) I was rejected based on my existing medical history. After this happened to me a few times, I complained because I felt that it was a waste of my time to go to the screening visits if I was always going to be rejected based on something that was already on my files.<br />
<br />
I don't know exactly what changed but eventually, after going to numerous screenings and being rejected I was finally accepted onto my first trial. I seem to remember it was a little different to a lot of the other trials, they weren't actually testing a drug but it was something to do with a radioactive trace and involved a number of blood tests. It didn't pay as well as a lot of the trials I had been sent details of (approximately 600) but it was my first trial and after that I was able to successfully take part in several more over the next few years, earning me several thousand pounds in the process.<br />
<br />
Along the lines (having finally been successful with one medical research unit) I reapplied to the other one. The second time around I didn't have any problems with anything and I was accepted there as a volunteer as well. My persistence and stubbornness had paid off.<br />
