Abstract

 Background and Objective: Due to prevalence of amphetamine abuse and necessity of appropriate treatment, the present research aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) of dorsolateral zone of Pre-Frontal Cortex (DLFPC) on craving in methamphetamine abusers. Subjects and Methods: In this cross-sectional double-blind study, with pre-and post-test, 30 methamphetamine-dependent patients were included according to the inclusion criteria. We applied 20 min ‘ anodal’ tDCS (2 mA) or ‘ sham’ tDCS over right DLPFC in a random sequence while subjects performed a computerized cue-induced craving task (CICT) starting after 10 min of stimulation. Immediate craving was assessed before the stimulation, after 10 min of tDCS, and after tDCS termination by visual analog scale (VAS) of 0 to 100. Results: The results showed that in the real tDCS group 10 min after the start of electrical stimulation, while in the control group the mock tDCS did not change significantly the craving rate for methamphetamine. Also the results showed the rate of methamphetamine cravings increased in both groups after the 20 minutes (P> 0. 05). Conclusion: Using tDCS as a complementary treatment is recommended for decreasing methamphetamine craving.
