About this trial

This study is testing two approaches to treating Stimulant Use Disorder, or problems with cocaine, crack, methamphetamine, etc. Stimulant Use Disorder is a national epidemic in the U.S. but there is no FDA-approved medication to treat it. There is a behavioral approach that has been found to be the most effective treatment for Stimulant Use Disorder, but this study is testing whether this can be delivered by a smartphone service, remotely, such as at home.
