A clinical trial or medical testing in Melbourne / Brisbane is one of the ways to make money quickly. However, you must know all the relevant details to ensure that you are making a right decision. You can also talk to the doctors, medical staff, and nurses in detail. It will help you compare the pros and cons of participating in a clinical trial.
Here is how you can make money by clinical trial or medical testing in Melbourne.
- Duration
The amount of money you make from clinical trials depends upon the duration of your stay. You must have a clear idea about how long you can participate in the trial. From my experience, if you are working then It won’t cover your income loss but it would reimburse a decent amount which is between $300 to $360 a night. Therefore if you are not working or on a study break clinical trials are the best way to make some extra cash. The trial might last for a few days to couple of weeks However, trials are not supposed to be the main source of income for anyone.
- Registration
Nucleous network conduct trials in their Melbourne and Brisbane clinics. Therfore, In order to participate in a trial the first step is to register with nucleus network by filling out this form. After putting your basic info, I would really appreciate it if you would write “ASAD SHOAIB” in a referral field at the bottom so I could get some benefit as well. After that you can schedule a call back and someone from the clinic would get back to you and discuss potential trial options. You have to select a trial and book a screening appointment. At screening appointment they would ask your medical history and do some basic tests including ECG, Vitals and blood test to make sure if you are a good fit for a trial.
- Risks
In my opinion risk is lower but it’s real, therefore I would encourage you to discuss all the possible risks thoroughly with a doctor. From my understanding no one has ever died in a Melbourne clinic but side effects like headache, nausea and anxiety can happen therefore try not to be a part of the first cohort that is being tested. It will reveal the most side effects and you would have a peace of mind that someone had already tested that experimental drug.
After completing a trial you would get paid within 10 days through bank transfer in your nominated bank account.
