BEetle: Healthy Participants Needed in Penang for Research Studies!

Do you know why are there certain drugs available in the market which cost so much cheaper than other drugs containing exactly the same medicine?

These cheaper drugs are known as generic drugs. They are significantly cheaper than their proprietary or "original" counterparts as the manufacturers of these generic drugs do not need to pay huge amount of money on developing and marketing a new drug.

But, how confident are you that these drugs will actually behave like how they are supposed to in your body?

Here at Info Kinetics, we aim to provide affordable drugs to both you and I and at the same time ensuring the quality of them by conducting bioequivalence studies to compare the generic drugs to their proprietary counterparts in human body.

Therefore, we need you, as a healthy volunteer, to come be a part of us and take part in these studies!

Imagine if:

You will be paid for just chilling with us - our study ward has entertainment facilities like free WiFi, television, PlayStation, board and card games, etc..

You will receive free medical check-up which usually costs around RM300.

You will meet new friends and have fun!

But of course, there are certain requirements that you need to fulfill before we can enroll you into our studies for safety purpose.

You need to be:

Healthy male or female (non-pregnant) aged between 18-55 years.

Average body weight between 45-80 kg.

No significant illnesses and not on regular medication.

Non-smoker or smoke less than 10 cigarettes per day.

Also, we currently have a new referral system which runs from the 13th of April until the end of May, 2010 to encourage more existing or even new volunteers to invite their friends to join our studies. For each person that refers a friend to be successfully screened and enrolled into a study, RM10 will be rewarded. If a person successfully refers 2 friends, RM30 will be rewarded; if a person successfully refers 5 friends, RM80 will be rewarded; and if a person successfully refers 10 friends, RM180 will be rewarded.

If you think you are eligible, you are invited to attend a free medical check-up (please call first for appointment) on the 20th and 24th of April at our office at 3rd Floor, Pantai Hospital Penang.

For further details or to confirm your eligibility, please contact Amanda at 04-6455760 or 016-4125760 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM (Monday to Friday). If you are shy to call, you are also welcome to drop us a message at our Facebook page or send us an e-mail at volunteer@info-kinetics.com.
