NCT ID NCT05776966
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a smartphone app designed specifically for women to help them stay engaged with their medication for opioid use disorder. 39 women who had recently started medication treatment were randomly assigned to use the app plus standard care, or standard care alone. Researchers measured how satisfied women were with the app, how easy it was to use, and how often they logged in, with follow-ups up to 12 weeks.
