A study on fentanyl effects and a possible second drug
This study looks at how patients feel when they receive fentanyl (a pain medication) before or during a procedure. It aims to see if a second drug, called amisulpride, changes how much they like the fentanyl, which may help prevent misuse.

This study is testing a program called BSAFE that teaches people who use stimulants like cocaine or methamphetamine how to stay safer around fentanyl. It aims to prevent accidental fentanyl exposure and its harms.
This study compares two methods of starting buprenorphine (a medication that helps reduce opioid cravings and withdrawal) for people who use fentanyl daily. The goal is to see which method helps people stay in treatment longer.
This study tests a new drug, CS-1103, to see if it can safely help reverse the effects of fentanyl (a strong opioid) even after a naloxone block. Healthy volunteers who have used opioids before will be given fentanyl and then the study drug, while researchers monitor safety and how the drug works.
This study tests two different forms of buprenorphine (a medication for opioid addiction) to see which works better for people who use fentanyl or other strong synthetic opioids. If you are seeking treatment for opioid use, this trial may help you find the most effective option.
