#introduction Hi all, I'm an #addiction doc from Italy, with a background in pharmacology; also messing in the national board of SITD Italian scientific society on addictions.
Looking for colleagues and researchers in the field.
Main interests by now: therapy of #cocaine use disorder; therapeutic use of #naltrexone, #baclofen, #acetylcysteine, #disulfiram.
Side interest: effects of #tobacco on Covid attack rate.

RCTs are ongoing.
