Official title
Oxytocin in Opiate Dependence: A Double-blind, Within-subjects, Placebo-controlled Pilot Study of the Effects of Intranasal Oxytocin on Emotional Processes and Stress Responses in Patients With Opiate Dependence
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Opiate dependence is a serious problem, and oxytocin has many properties which make it attractive as a treatment for this type of substance dependence. This experiment will test the effects of oxytocin on a variety of brain-based processes in patients with opiate dependence. The investigators hypothesize that intranasal oxytocin in these conditions will enhance emotional processing and will have beneficial effects on stress responses in opiate-dependent patients.
