Study Summary
Neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS) symptoms contribute to poor infant weight gain. Early caloric enhancement for infants exposed to methadone is inexpensive, readily available, easy to implement and could improve early outcomes for these high-risk infants. We will conduct a preliminary randomized clinical trial of high-calorie vs. standard-calorie formula for methadone exposed infants to evaluate the adequacy of recruitment, protocol feasibility and estimates of whether high-calorie formula results in more normal patterns of weight loss and gain, less severe NAS symptoms and shorter hospital stays.
