摘要

Purpose of Review

Although medications for opioid use disorder (OUD) are effective, relapse remains common. Noninvasive brain stimulation (NIBS) has emerged as a potential adjunctive treatment. We review publications since 2020 that tested NIBS interventions in humans and assessed clinically relevant outcomes.

Recent Findings

We identified a total of 19 studies of NIBS for treatment of craving; acute detoxification, withdrawal, and early abstinence; relapse prevention; cognitive dysfunction associated with OUD; mood and anxiety symptoms in OUD; co-occurring SUDs with OUD; and post-operative pain management and prevention of OUD.

Summary

NIBS interventions, particularly repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation have demonstrated preliminary evidence of effectiveness to treat OUD and its associated symptoms.
