Summary

The objective of the current research is to improve treatment for injection opioid users by augmenting pharmacotherapy with an innovative text-messaging strategy to promote relapse prevention skills, reduce HIV-risk behaviors, and improve HIV treatment regimen adherence.

Conditions

  • HIV
  • Opioid Abuse

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Standard Care

Standard care will include usual treatment for HIV and a pamphlet that will be provided to the participants with information about ART adherence and relapse prevention.

BEHAVIORAL

Text Messaging CBT (TXT-CBT)

Those assigned to TXT-CBT will be given a treatment manual (developed in Phase I) containing descriptions of core therapeutic content/topics for each week. HIV-infected participants will have initial meeting with a CBT clinician to review the core CBT concepts for promoting ART adherence. The 3 most applicable medication adherence skills will be identified for emphasis in tailored messages. A research coordinator will meet with the participants weekly at data collection visits throughout the intervention phase to answer any technical questions and ensure that the intervention program is working properly.
