Brain stimulation for methamphetamine use disorder
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older and have at least a junior high school education or can fully understand the tasks.
- You have been diagnosed with mild or severe amphetamine-type substance use disorder, using these substances for at least 1 year, at least once per week.
- You have not received any medication for substance use disorder.
- You do not have other mental health conditions such as bipolar disorder or major depression.
- You have no medical conditions or devices that make TMS unsafe, such as metal implants in the head.
- You are able to complete the assessments and treatment sessions without limitations.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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.
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 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 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.
