Eczema, atopic dermatitis, or just plain itchy skin can ruin your day and make sleeping a challenge. When moisturizers, medicated creams, and antihistamines aren’t enough, you may be offered the new biologic drug, Dupixent. This new drug is highly effective, but also costly (~$37,000/year). Sarasota Clinical Research is participating in a national pharmaceutical trial with this agent, addressing its impact on nighttime itch.  There is no charge for all medication and testing during the trial and you may be compensated for your time and travel.

They’ve been called hives, welts, itches, welts, or swelling, but the medical terminology is urticaria.  As many as 20% of people will experience urticaria in their lifetime. When it persists for longer than 6 weeks, we call it chronic urticaria. Here at the Sarasota Clinical Research center at Windom Allergy we are testing a monthly injection for chronic urticaria. You may be compensated for your time and travel. Find out more here! -> www.windomallergy.com/clinical-trials
