In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Drug overdose is a leading cause of death among postpartum women and opioid-related mortality is 4 times higher in the postpartum period when compared to the third trimester of pregnancy. Medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD; e.g., methadone or buprenorphine) are the recommended standard of care for perinatal women with OUD. Studies indicate that 50-60% of perinatal women with OUD initiate medications during pregnancy; however, over half will prematurely discontinue treatment within the first six months of childbirth due to stressors experienced in the postpartum period. Common stressors that contribute to MOUD treatment discontinuation in this population are return to opioid use, mental health symptoms including depression, parenting-related stressors such as challenges in infant care and bonding, Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS), child welfare involvement, and feelings of guilt,
