Study Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether or not buspirone is effective in preventing relapse in cocaine-dependent adults in inpatient/residential treatment who are planning to enter outpatient treatment upon inpatient/residential discharge.

Primary Outcome

The primary outcome measure selected for the present two-stage protocol is the maximum days of continuous cocaine abstinence during study weeks 4-15. The Timeline Follow-back (TLFB) procedure (Sobell and Sobell, 1992; Fals-Stewart, 2000) will be used to assess the participants' self-reported use of substances for each day of the study. A rapid UDS system that screens for drugs of abuse will be used to analyze the urine samples.
