NCT ID NCT07524738

First seen Apr 24, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tests whether giving a long-acting buprenorphine shot (BRIXADI) via telemedicine to 30 people in jail, just before they are released, helps them stay on treatment and avoid opioid use. Participants switch from daily sublingual buprenorphine to weekly and then monthly injections while still incarcerated, and are linked to a community provider after release. The main goal is to see how many injections they complete, with follow-ups at 1, 2, and 3 months post-release.
