ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a medication called Ingavirin Forte, which is being tested for its safety and how well it is tolerated in healthy volunteers. The trial aims to understand how different doses of this medication affect people when taken once or multiple times. It is particularly focused on how the body processes this drug, which is important for determining how effective it could be in treating conditions like influenza and other viral respiratory infections.

To participate in the trial, volunteers must be healthy men and women between the ages of 18 and 45. They should not have any significant health issues or allergies that could affect their safety during the study. Participants can expect to take the medication as directed and will be closely monitored for any side effects or reactions. It’s a great opportunity to contribute to medical research while helping to assess a potential treatment for viral infections. If you are interested, make sure to check that you meet the eligibility criteria before signing up!
