Official title
Time to Detox: A Patient-Centered Comparison of Length of Detoxification Treatment and Time to Naltrexone Maintenance Therapy in Opioid-Dependent Individuals
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Despite an increased focus on treating opioid use disorder there are relatively few studies that compare the length of time required for detoxification with medications other than buprenorphine. Morphine and tramadol have shorter half-lives than buprenorphine and can be used for opioid detoxification. The proposed protocol aims to address this gap by directly comparing the length of treatment required for detoxification from opioids in a patient-centered manner with oral morphine, tramadol, or buprenorphine-naloxone as well as comparing the severity of withdrawal experienced by patients in each group. The investigators predict that treatment with oral morphine or tramadol will result in a faster completion of detoxification and initiation of naltrexone maintenance.
