Summary

This trial will test if telemedicine intervention delivered through public libraries can help reduce opioid overdoses among unstably housed individuals.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals seeking treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD), regardless of their OUD and treatment history. It's open to library patrons who are not currently on buprenorphine with an active medical prescriber, or those who need a new provider. Accommodations will be made for participants with disabilities.
What is being tested?
The 'Bupe by the Book' study tests if using telehealth in public libraries can improve access to buprenorphine treatment for unstably housed individuals. Participants will be randomly assigned to either weekly telehealth sessions at the library or standard in-person clinic visits over a period of 12 weeks.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects are not listed, buprenorphine may commonly cause symptoms like nausea, drowsiness, constipation, headache, or sweating. Side effects vary from person to person.
