Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
As many as 50% of MS patients prematurely discontinue their disease modifying medications. For this study, we will develop a telephone-based talk therapy intervention and then conduct a randomized controlled trial. Patients will be assigned to either 5 weekly 20 minute telephone sessions of psychotherapy or a brief education control condition. We hypothesize that patients undergoing phone therapy will be more likely to indicate they are interested in resuming taking disease modifying medications than patients given brief education and treatment as usual.
