Checkup

Do You Suffer from
Recurring Abdominal Discomfort?

Clinical trial seeks participants

Mayo Clinic is looking for individuals with:

  • Chronic abdominal discomfort
  • Bloating
  • Early or excessive fullness following meals

The Clinical Studies Unit is investigating the effects of two medicines on symptoms after meals and on the movement of food through the stomach. The nine-month trial (three months on medication, six months of follow-up) involves questionnaires, laboratory tests, a nutrient drink test, and a gastric emptying study. A sample of blood for DNA will be drawn and stored for future testing. Visits will range from 2 to 6 hours. Compensation is offered. Please call Verna Skinner at (904) 953-0703 or send an email to skinner.verna@mayo.edu.
