Bright Light Therapy for Cocaine Withdrawal During Hospital Stay
Part of Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether bright light therapy—sitting in front of a special bright light box for a set time each day—can help reduce cravings and withdrawal symptoms when you're in the hospital stopping cocaine use. Researchers think light therapy might help stabilize your mood and sleep during this difficult time.
