Summary

This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS can help people with opioid use disorder stick with their methadone treatment and avoid relapse. Researchers will measure how stress affects cravings and decision-making. 32 adults currently in methadone or buprenorphine treatment will participate.
