Brain stimulation for methamphetamine use disorder
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests a new type of non-invasive brain stimulation (transcranial magnetic stimulation) that targets the cerebellum and prefrontal cortex to help people with methamphetamine use disorder. It aims to see if this treatment can reduce cravings and improve outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- Methamphetamine is your main drug, and you have moderate or severe methamphetamine use disorder.
- You are between 18 and 60 years old.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study tests a brain stimulation treatment called TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) to help people with methamphetamine use disorder. It aims to improve symptoms and support recovery.
This trial tests a new non-invasive brain stimulation treatment called closed-loop TBS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) for people with methamphetamine use disorder. It aims to improve core symptoms by targeting a specific brain area, and may help reduce cravings and improve control.
This study tests whether combining a non-invasive brain stimulation technique (TMS) with a mental exercise called 'episodic future thinking' can help people reduce methamphetamine use. TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain areas linked to addiction, and episodic future thinking involves imagining positive future events to reduce cravings.
This study uses a type of brain stimulation called deep TMS to see if it can help people with methamphetamine use disorder reduce their cravings and use. You would receive daily magnetic pulses to specific brain areas over several weeks.
This study tests a faster brain stimulation technique (TMS) to help people reduce methamphetamine use. It may be a good option if you have moderate to severe methamphetamine use disorder and are looking for new treatment approaches.
This study uses brain scans to see how men with methamphetamine use disorder react to images or reminders of the drug. It aims to understand cravings and brain activity, which could help improve treatments.
