Test dronabinol for pain responses in people on opioid treatment

This early-stage study tests whether dronabinol (a form of THC) changes pain perception in people with opioid use disorder who are already stable on methadone or buprenorphine. It may help researchers understand whether this treatment affects pain and drug-related outcomes in a safer, controlled way.
