This research study may be for you!
The Persist study is looking for
volunteers who have recently
starting taking Suboxone
(Buprenorphine).
Chronic pain affects a lot of people, with some studies suggesting that as many as 50 million people in the US live with chronic pain. Over the past decade and a half,
opioids were the most commonly used form of treatment for chronic pain, which lead to a lot of problems, including people developing problems with using opioids.
Managing chronic pain creates unique challenges for people in recovery from opioids. Our research team is looking to see whether a newly developed therapeutic treatment can help people manage both chronic pain and recovery medications like Suboxone. We need your help in testing out this new therapy.
Our study lasts for 12 months and can be done completely remotely, no in-person visits required! As a thank you, you could earn up to $500 for your time.
Reach out if you are interested in learning more! To make sure you are a good fit for our study, we’ll ask you some questions about your treatment, substance use, and pain experience. These questions will take about 5 minutes to answer.
You may be eligible if you:
- Are at least 18 years old and live in the US
- Have chronic pain
- Had problems with opioid use in the past 12 months
- Started taking Buprenorphine in the last six months
