1. Resource Description

   The Investigational Drug Service (IDS) is the research pharmacy for the University of Pennsylvania, providing services for clinical and pre-clinical drug and device trials to investigators at all Penn schools, UP Health System hospitals and clinics and affiliated institutions. The IDS is able to offer a range of services to investigators, from preparation, dispensing and inventory management for inpatient and outpatient trials, to formulation of blinded dosage forms or placebos to match existing medications, randomization tables and blinding schemes, specialized packaging and distribution, as well as limited release testing of finished products. We can assemble draft materials for CMC (IND) submissions or draft language for protocols, describing our activities related to your specific protocol. As a core facility, we pass along our actual costs on an hourly basis for these services. We maintain a highly secure, temperature-controlled facility and an electronic inventory system.
