Brain stimulation study for people with opioid addiction
Part of Mental health, Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a non-invasive brain stimulation approach to reduce opioid cravings in people who are actively using non-prescribed opioids while on stable methadone. It may help people feel less craving and improve recovery support.

This trial combines a gentle brain stimulation technique called tDCS with thinking exercises to see if it helps people with opioid use disorder who are already on medication. It aims to improve treatment outcomes
This study uses a type of brain stimulation called tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) to see if it can help people who have recently started medication for opioid dependence (buprenorphine or methadone) stay on track and avoid relapse. The treatment is non-invasive and involves a mild electrical current applied to the scalp.
This trial tests if brain stimulation can help people starting buprenorphine for opioid use disorder. It aims to improve treatment outcomes and support recovery.
This trial studies whether deep brain stimulation (a device that delivers small electrical signals to the brain) can reduce cravings and improve symptoms in adults with opioid use disorder. You may be eligible if you have a long history of opioid dependence and have tried multiple treatment options without lasting success.
This study is testing whether a brain stimulation treatment called deep TMS can help people with opioid use disorder quit smoking. It is for those who are already in treatment for opioid use disorder and are motivated to quit.
This study is testing whether adding a medication (buprenorphine), counseling, and a type of brain stimulation (TMS) can improve long-term opioid therapy for chronic pain. If you have been taking prescription opioids daily for at least 3 months and have extra risk factors for opioid-related problems, this trial may offer you new ways to manage pain and reduce risks.
