Clinical Trial Summary

The proposed study is a clinical trial, designed to pilot test a Distress Tolerance-Benzodiazepine Discontinuation (DT-BD) intervention for patients on opioid agonist therapy (OAT) who currently use benzodiazepines versus a Relaxation Therapy (RT) control condition. The DT-BD intervention is an adjunctive psychosocial intervention in people seeking to discontinue (BZD) use.


Clinical Trial Description

This study pilot tests a 13-week distress tolerance-based psychosocial intervention paired with a benzodiazepine taper comparing it to a relaxation therapy control condition with the aim of assisting individuals receiving OAT discontinue benzodiazepine use. All participants will receive the same benzodiazepine (BZD) discontinuation protocol. The Distress Tolerance-Benzodiazepine Discontinuation (DT-BD) intervention consists of 13 weeks with 5 weekly therapy sessions prior to a 9-week BZD taper. Some participants may be prescribed non-benzodiazepine medications to treat the underlying conditions for which they were using BZDs [e.g. selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI) for anxiety or hypnotics for insomnia]. Data collection will occur at baseline, then weekly for 13 weeks. ;
