Sumario:Psychosocial support is recommended in conjunction with medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD), although optimal “dose,” modality, and timing of participation is not established. This study comprised a secondary analysis of counseling and 12-Step attendance and subsequent opioid use in a MOUD randomized clinical trial. Methods: The parent study randomly assigned 570 participants to receive buprenorphine-naloxone (BUP-NX, n=287) or extended-release injectable naltrexone (XR-NTX, n=283). Mixed-effects logistic regression models were fit with opioid use as the response variable, and a counseling/12-Step attendance predictor. Differences by treatment assignment were examined. Results: Any counseling or 12-Step attendance was associated with reduced odds of opioid use at the subsequent visit, whether considered individually or aggregated across type. A continuous relationship was observed for 12-Step attendance (F(1,5083)=5.01, p=.025); with each additional hour associated with 13% (95% CI: 0.83, 0.90) reduction in odds of opioid use. The strength of this association grew over time. In the BUP-NX arm, group counseling was associated with a greater reduction in odds of opioid use than for XR-NTX, (OR=0.32 (95% CI: .22, 0.48) vs. OR=0.69 (95% CI: 0.43, 1.08)). For XR-NTX, 12-Step was associated with a greater reduction in odds of opioid use (OR=0.35 (95% CI: 0.22, 0.54) vs. OR=0.65 (95% CI: 0.47, 0.89) for BUP-NX)). Conclusions: Psychosocial engagement has a proximal association with opioid use, the strength of that association may grow with dose and time. Alternatively, more motivated individuals may both attend more counseling/12-Step and have better treatment outcomes, or the relationship may be reciprocal.
