A Personalized Approach to Opioid Use Disorder

This study investigates the potential of a personalized psychosocial intervention (PSI) for patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) who are not responding well to opioid agonist therapy (OAT). The researchers developed a PSI that is tailored to the individual needs and responses of each patient, utilizing a combination of motivational, cognitive/behavioral, and social support techniques. The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of this PSI compared to standard care in reducing relapse and improving treatment outcomes for OAT-resistant patients.

Tailoring Treatment to Individual Needs

This study underscores the importance of individualized treatment for OUD. The researchers believe that a personalized approach, tailored to the specific needs of each patient, could significantly improve treatment outcomes.

Understanding Opioid Use Disorder
