amphetamine-trial

Comparing the efficacy of naltrexone implant plus cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) versus CBT alone for the treatment of methamphetamine (MA) use disorders. The primary outcome is return to use measured by urine drug screen (UDS) and self-reported MA use. Given the lack of available pharmacotherapy for MA use disorders, research into its treatment is pivotal in moving forward to reduce the burden of MA in Australia
