Zapping the brain to fight a double addiction
NCT ID NCT04264741
Summary
This study tested whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique could help people who are on methadone treatment for opioid addiction also stop using methamphetamine. 55 participants received either real or fake magnetic stimulation to the brain for four weeks while continuing their methadone. Researchers tracked drug use through urine tests and surveys for 16 weeks to see if the treatment reduced methamphetamine use and cravings.
