The vol unteer must be 18-24 year old and in good health with no acute or chronic disease or disorder. He or she may not be under any medication at the time of the experiment and women may not be pregnant. The two drugs being studied are amantadine and rimantadine, said Quarles. Amantadine is a commer cially available medicine (trade name Symmetrel) recommended for pre vention of Russian Flu. Rimantadine is a closely-related experimental drug which is reported to he more effective in flu prevention than amantadine. “The procedure for interested students is fairly simple, said Quarles. Each volunteer willl take two capsules per day, one in the morning and one at night for about six weeks. The capsule will contain either amantidine, rimantidine or will be a placebo (no active med icine). The experiment will be double blind, said Quarles, there fore neither the student or the re searchers will know which type of capsule they are receiving. Three blood samples, each 20 mil liliter (1.5 tablespoons), will be col lected from the volunteer s arm dur ing the experiment to determine if adequate concentrations of drug are in their systems, he said. Each volunteer must also com plete a weekly form to indicate that they have had no illness and are con tinuing to take the capsules regu larly, said Quarles. If any illness or unusual symptoms develop during the study, the volun teer should report to the Universih Health Center so the cause can he evaluated. If the illness resembles the flu, a throat swab for v iralculture will he taken, and the capsules will he stopped if the symptoms are due to the medication, said Quarles. Some discomforts may result from the experiment, said Quarles. For example, amantadine and riman tadine may have slight side effects, such as depression or drowsiness. Another discomfort may he from the three venipunctures for blood sam ples, he said. Quarles said student participants who receive amantadine or riman tadine are expec ted to have a 50 per cent or greater reduction in the likelihood of contracting the Russian Flu virus while taking the capsules. He added that Russian Flu usuallv lasts only three to four days. The main benefit expected from this experiment, said Quarles, is to further the development and use of Get medic ine effective in prut 0 urse fluenza A virus infections.
