About this study

Official title: Effects of a Multi-Ingredient Dietary Supplement Consisting of Vitamins, Minerals, Botanicals, and Nootropics on Blood and Breath Alcohol Levels

This study is a randomized, two-arm, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study of N=36 apparently healthy men and women. This study will assess the effect of a blend of dietary supplements on blood and breath levels after consuming alcohol.

Read the detailed description

This study is a randomized, two-arm, double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study of N=36 apparently healthy men and women. This study will assess the effect of a blend of dietary supplements on blood and breath levels after consuming alcohol. Consumption of this dietary supplement is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

Participants will attend three study visits. During Visit 1, participants will be screened for participation (i.e., medical history, routine blood work, and background baseline diet. During Visits 2 and 3 participants will ingest 100 mL (3.4 oz) of 40% alcohol, along with a commercially available liquid blend of dietary supplements or a placebo, and undergo assessments of breath alcohol content, blood alcohol levels, blood alcohol dehydrogenase levels, and various visual analog scales (VAS) for indices of affect (headache, nausea, fatigue, energy, tiredness, thirst, concentration) for 4 hours post-ingestion. Safety will be monitored via vital signs (heart rate, blood pressure) and adverse events (AE) throughout study.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Safety Shot in people with Alcohol Drinking, run by The Center for Applied Health Sciences, LLC at 1 site in United States.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 12 inclusion and 13 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 16 May 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Headache (time frame: Change from baseline to 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 60 minutes, 120 minutes, 180 minutes and 240 minutes.). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 16 May 2024.
