Clinical trials=free medicine? Think again Clinical trials are often portrayed as a way to get free medicine to treat your illness. The medicine is not really free. It is more like something used in a barter. The group conducting the survey will give you medicine in return for letting them test out the medicine on you.
It is also helpful to talk to a physician, family members, or friends about deciding to join a trial. After identifying some trial options, the next step is to contact the study research staff and ask questions about specific trials.
