I will be attending Baylor University in the fall as a Pre-Pharmacy/Biomedical Engineering student, and am currently working on an internship project in conjunction with RateADrug.com to collect primary user data about side effects and benefits from commonly used treatments for Narcolepsy. The goal is to build a large, public access database of unbiased, anecdotal data about narcoleptic treatments.

We want to let both patients and practitioners know about how they can participate in or benefit from the project. Users can add their experiences with a treatment and learn more about how the treatment is affecting them by taking a short, confidential survey. They can also use RateADrug to compare aggregate data for different Narcolepsy treatments- both conventional and alternative (rateadrug.com/Narcolepsy-symptoms-feedback.aspx) - and forward the results of their own surveys to their doctors or family members.

RateADrug is an independent data gathering and information website that does not accept funding or advertisement from drug companies.

Would it be possible for you to make this information available to your viewers so they can help us collect important data on Narcolepsy treatments?

Thank you. I’d be happy to speak with you if you have any questions or comments.
