Medical examinations will often include a blood and urine sample, height, weight, and an ECG to monitor heart and blood pressure. Volunteers will also be tested for recreational drugs. This is an additional safety measure to detect any illegal drug substance which may react with the medicines on trial. Each study is different so there may be additional tests to the above which may require additional visits.
