Your voice may tell if You're using opioids – new study says yes!

This study looked at whether changes in a person's voice can help detect opioid use in people being treated for opioid use disorder. Researchers collected voice samples from 41 patients and used machine learning to find patterns linked to opioid intoxication or withdrawal. The goal was to create a non-invasive, easy-to-use tool that could replace or supplement current methods like self-reports and drug tests.
