Effects of E-Cigarette Flavors on Adult E-Cigarette Users With Opioid Use Disorder
Purpose
This study examines the effects of e-cigarette (EC) flavors among adults with opioid use disorder (OUD) receiving buprenorphine treatment who currently use e-cigarettes. Participants will complete a brief session in which they will smell and rate 11 EC flavors based on appeal, sensory characteristics, and likelihood of future use. Researchers will examine how different flavor profiles influence the appeal, positive subjective effects, and reinforcing potential of EC flavors in this population. The goal of the study is to identify one or more EC flavors that may enhance the acceptability and reinforcing effects of ECs as a potential harm-reduction strategy among adults with OUD receiving buprenorphine treatment. Participants must be current EC users, former daily combustible cigarette smokers, at least 21 years old, and currently receiving buprenorphine treatment for OUD.
