New patch could ease opioid withdrawal for pregnant moms

NCT ID NCT05790252

Summary

This study is testing if a buprenorphine skin patch can help pregnant women with opioid addiction start treatment with less severe withdrawal symptoms. Normally, patients must go through withdrawal before beginning medication, but the patch may ease this difficult period. Researchers will compare the patch to standard care in 40 pregnant women to see which method leads to better treatment success and fewer withdrawal symptoms.
