Study aims to get newborns home sooner from opioid withdrawal

NCT ID NCT05980260

Completed Disease control Sponsor: HELP for NOWS Consortium Source: ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Summary

This large, completed study compared two common ways to give medicine to babies born with opioid withdrawal (NOWS). It tested whether giving medicine only when symptoms appear works better than a scheduled daily dose that slowly decreases. The main goal was to see which approach helps babies get medically ready to leave the hospital sooner, while keeping them safe.
