IDS services are provided upon request to physicians conducting drug-related research involving patients at UNC Hospitals. The IDS pharmacists coordinate the preparation and dispensing of clinical trial medications, to the extent possible, within the framework of existing policies and procedures of the Department of Pharmacy. In addition, IDS pharmacists assist investigators in the design of clinical trials, which include the blinding and randomization of drug therapies. IDS pharmacists maintain inventory and dispensing records, ensure compliance with state and federal regulations for the handling of investigational drugs, and provide drug information to medical and nursing personnel. IDS is located on the third floor of the main hospital and can be reached at 966-3469. Hours of operation are 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
