How much do clinical trials pay?
Phase 1 inpatient trials pay $2,000-$10,000 for 1-14 day stays. Outpatient studies pay $100-$500 per visit. Long-term studies pay $1,200-$3,000 over 6-12 months. Compensation varies by study complexity and duration.
Are clinical trials safe?
All clinical trials are regulated by the FDA and IRB (Institutional Review Board). Phase 1 trials test safety first. You'll be monitored by medical professionals throughout. Serious side effects are rare but possible. Always read the informed consent carefully.
Can I do multiple clinical trials?
Yes, but there are "washout periods" (usually 30 days) between drug trials to ensure the previous drug is out of your system. You can do multiple non-drug studies (surveys, device studies) simultaneously.
