Summary

This study tested a culturally adapted relapse prevention program (RPM-08) for people with substance use disorder in Pakistan. 70 male participants in residential rehab either received the program plus usual care or usual care alone. The program consisted of eight weekly group sessions focused on identifying triggers and building coping skills. Researchers measured relapse risk using a questionnaire at several points to see if the program helped.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Relapse Prevention Module (RPM-08) - a structured cognitive-behavioral intervention delivered in group sessions
What this could lead to
If this works, it could provide an effective, low-cost tool to help people with substance use disorder stay in recovery and avoid relapse.
What could go wrong
This is a small, completed trial with only 70 male participants in Pakistan, so results may not apply to other groups. The intervention is behavioral, so effects may vary.
