Summary

This study tests a program called Youth Opioid Recovery Support (YORS) to help teenagers with opioid use disorder stay on their medication and avoid relapse. The program includes family involvement, easy access to medication, and regular check-ins. Researchers will enroll 80 teens aged 13-21 to see if the program improves how long they stay on treatment.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Youth Opioid Recovery Support (YORS) behavioral intervention
What this could lead to: If it works, this could provide a practical way to help more teens stay on opioid-use disorder medication and reduce overdose risk.
What could go wrong: This is a small early-stage study (80 people) testing a behavioral program, not a new drug. Results may not apply to all teens, and adherence can still be challenging.
