Professional Comparator Drug Sourcing and Procurement Services for Clinical Trials Growing in Popularity

Professional Comparator Drug Sourcing and Procurement Services for Clinical Trials Growing in Popularity

Specialized clinical trial services have exploded in popularity in the past few years. One specialized service in particular has developed into a very important component of the clinical trial service industry. This service, comparator drug procurement, has become essential for clinical researchers.

(PRWEB) February 18, 2008

ClinicalDrugSource. com (http://www. clinicaldrugsource. com), a clinical trial drug procurement specialty company, has noticed a significant increase in the number of requests for drug procurement quotes and services in the past year. The specialization of clinical trial services has exploded in recent years. One novel, new area within the clinical trial service industry is comparator drug procurement services. Rather than dealing with the complex and convoluted process of sourcing and procuring comparator drugs themselves, clinical researchers and their staff are turning to specialized companies experienced in the field of comparator drug procurement.

ClinicalDrugSource. com (http://www. clinicaldrugsource. com/Clinical_Drug_Trial_Comparator_Drug. asp) is a licensed Canadian pharmaceutical wholesaler which offers Contract Research Organizations, clinical trial sponsors, Clinical Research Coordinators and anyone involved in drug procurement for clinical trials, a simple solution for their comparator drug sourcing and procurement needs. Since 2006, ClincalDrugSource. com, has established an extensive network of licensed, international pharmaceutical wholesalers. Their unique, proprietary pharmaceutical network allows ClinicalDrugSource. com to be able to offer very reliable and cost-effective comparator drug sourcing.

Procuring active comparator drugs for drug studies and clinical trials is a key component of the clinical research process. Comparator drug sourcing within your own country can be a complicated, expensive and time-consuming process. Sourcing comparator drugs from international locations can be extremely daunting without the right knowledge and expertise. Unique pharmaceutical regulatory restrictions in various countries and the geographical distance from the source country and their pharmaceutical manufacturers and wholesalers can make international comparator drug sourcing a monumental task.

Clinical researchers are moving towards the utilization of specialty drug procurement companies such as ClinicalDrugSource. com to avoid the headaches involved in international and local comparator drug procurement. This specialized, niche service has grown leaps and bounds over the past few years due to the growing demand to help relieve the stresses and high regulatory demands placed on clinical researchers during the clinical trial process.

About Clinical Drug Source:
ClinicalDrugSource. com is a licensed pharmaceutical wholesaler based in Winnipeg, Canada. Clinical Drug Source was established in early 2006. Clinical Drug Source is operated by a licensed pharmacist and former Health Canada official with 14 years of regulatory oversight experience. The company provides international and local comparator drug and study drug sourcing and procurement services for the clinical trial industry.

‘Just Say No’ to Savannah’s Proposed Smoking Ban, says IPCPR

‘Just Say No’ to Savannah’s Proposed Smoking Ban, says IPCPR

The International Premium Cigar & Pipe Retailers Association is urging smokers and non-smokers alike to ‘just say no’ to the Savannah City Council’s proposed smoking ban extension that would include virtually all workplaces, including smoke shops.

Savannah, Georgia (PRWEB) July 25, 2010

The International Premium Cigar & Pipe Retailers Association is urging smokers and non-smokers alike to ‘just say no’ to the Savannah City Council’s proposed smoking ban extension that would include virtually all workplaces, including smoke shops.

The second opportunity for comment on the issue will be at the Quarterly Town Hall Meeting to be held at 7 p. m. on Wednesday, July 28 in the Savannah Civic Center Ballroom. The proposal would eliminate current exemptions in the Georgia law by making all workplaces smoke-free. This includes all indoor and outdoor areas of bars, restaurants, private clubs and other businesses, including cigar stores and within 20 feet from the entrance to any such workplace.

“What no one needs is more of government telling people what they can and cannot do,” said Chris McCalla, legislative director of the IPCPR.

The IPCPR is an association of some 2,000 retailers and manufacturers of premium cigars, pipes, tobacco and accoutrements. These are, by and large, small, family businesses that have been passed on from generation to generation. According to McCalla, they do not represent what most people would classify as ‘big tobacco.’

“Our members hire neighborhood folks, pay all kinds of local, state and federal taxes, including taxes that fully support SCHIP – the State Children’s Health Insurance Program. Without tobacco taxes, SCHIP would disappear,” he said.

McCalla said that levels of secondhand smoke in virtually all working establishments are well within the safe standards set by the United States Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration. He also cited a paper funded by the Lung Association and published recently in the New England Journal of Medicine that puts the passive consumption of secondhand smoke at 0.009 cigarettes an hour in a bar and 0.001 at a bus stop.

“That means bartenders would get exposure to roughly 20 cigarettes per year which isn’t enough to do anyone any harm,” he said.

In addition to dismissing the overreaching claims against the impact of secondhand smoke, McCalla said legislative smoking bans tend to be unconstitutional and could lead to usurpation of civil rights.

“Jobs and businesses truly are at stake here, as well as the rights of business owners to declare whether or not smoking should be allowed in their establishments. If government was to declare no smoking in its facilities, then so be it. If a restaurant owner decides that his place of business will allow smoking, then that’s his right, as well. If patrons and potential employees don’t want to patronize a place that allows smoking, they have the right to go somewhere else,” he said.

McCalla urged all Savannah citizens, all Georgians and everyone else to attend the hearing or call the City Council at 912-651-6441 or the office of Mayor Otis Johnson at 912-651-6444 to voice their objection to the proposal.

Ryan studied under Mandossian, arguably the Internet's most acclaimed and successful entrepreneur who has generated over $233 million in sales and profits for his clients and partners via "electronic marketing" media since 1991.

"I'm thrilled about the prospect of discussing the "Hungry to Succeed" book with Alex because he coached and mentored me for four years through his teleseminar secrets, virtual book tour program and now, podcast training program," says Ryan. "It's been gratifying to learn from Alex, apply the tools and now to finally have an expression of my marketing contribution. I'm also pleased to demonstrate to my clients the application of what we teach in our Hungry to Succeed workshops. Life seems to have come full circle."

The live interview will be conducted over the phone and Internet on Wednesday, May 21 (5 p. m. PST/8 p. m. EST). As part of the book promotion, visitors are invited to download their free chapter on publicity--offering a "freebie" is just one of the online strategies recommended in the book and by Mandossian to sell information-based products.
