Summary
This study is for people with chronic pain who have been taking prescription opioids for a long time and may be at risk for side effects or overdose. Researchers will test three different approaches: switching to a low-dose buprenorphine patch, adding a brief pain-focused therapy, and using a type of brain stimulation called rTMS. The goal is to see if these steps can reduce pain and improve quality of life while lowering the risks of long-term opioid use.
