First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a slow-release form of dexamphetamine, a drug used for ADHD, can help people with cocaine and opioid addiction reduce their cocaine use. About 204 adults who are already on methadone for opioid addiction will receive either dexamphetamine or a placebo for 24 weeks. The goal is to see if this approach increases days of cocaine abstinence and improves overall health.
