Smartphone alerts & On-Demand pill tested to curb meth use in gay men

NCT ID NCT04791969

Summary

This study tested a two-part approach to help gay and bisexual men reduce methamphetamine use. Participants took a pill (naltrexone or placebo) only when they felt a craving or anticipated using meth. They also used a smartphone app that sent them reminders to take the pill at those crucial moments. Researchers measured if this combination reduced meth use in urine tests and helped participants stick to their HIV prevention or treatment medications.
