Withdrawal Syndrome Clinical Trial
Official title:
Kratom Use Disorder Management Using Clonidine and/or Buprenorphine
Kratom is used for stimulant, analgesic, anxiolytic, and sedative effects. There is inadequate knowledge about Kratom addiction. Kratom withdrawal may be treated like opioid withdrawal. Prospective observational crossover study of consenting adults who are undergoing Kratom withdrawal management. On alternate weeks, each patient receives treatment using Buprenorphine 5cmg/hr patch; or Clonidine tablet 0.1mg 4hourly; or combined Clonidine tablet 0.1mg 4hourly + Buprenorphine 5cmg/hr patch. Each patient will undergo treatment for 12 weeks. Patients will use Subjective Opiate Withdrawal Scale (SOWS) to collect data on daily basis. SOWS is a patient-administered tool that is used to record the severity and presence of opiate withdrawal. The physician will also use Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale (COWS) to collect data on weekly basis. COWS is a clinician-administered tool that is used to record the signs of opiate withdrawal. A change in the COWS and SOWS scores by 6-points is considered significant.
Kratom herb is used for stimulant, analgesic, anxiolytic, and sedative effects. There is inadequate knowledge about Kratom dependence and withdrawal therapy. Kratom withdrawal may be treated with similar therapy for opioid withdrawal. This is a prospective observational crossover study of consenting adult patients who are undergoing Kratom withdrawal management. On alternate weeks, each patient receives rotational treatment using Buprenorphine 5cmg/hr patch; or Clonidine tablet 0.1mg 4hourly; or combined Clonidine tablet 0.1mg 4hourly + Buprenorphine 5cmg/hr patch. Each patient will undergo Kratom withdrawal treatment for 12 continuous weeks. The patient will use the Subjective Opiate Withdrawal Scale (SOWS), a special validated scale, to collect data on daily basis. The SOWS is a patient-administered tool that is used to record the severity and presence of opiate withdrawal symptoms. In addition, the physician will use the Clinical Opiate Withdrawal Scale (COWS), a special validated scale, to collect data on weekly basis. The COWS is a clinician-administered tool that is used to record the symptoms and signs of opiate withdrawal or substance abuse disorder. A change in the COWS and SOWS scores by 6-points is considered significant. Data analyzed with IBM® SPSS® Statistics 25 (IBM Corp, Armonk, NY); using Student's t-test, ANOVA, Pearson Chi-square test, and regression analysis. P-value <0.05 is considered significant. ;
