Interventions to reduce relapse risk and drug craving in patients with substance use disorders in forensic psychiatric care: a systematic review of controlled trials

This systematic review suggests there is a lack of research aimed at the study of SUD interventions within FPC. Analysis of included articles found no conclusive evidence of effective treatments, but there seems to be an indication of a beneficial effect on drug use in one study, a treatment that addresses impulsivity. Further high-quality studies better tailored to FPC are needed to evaluate SUD treatment outcome among FPC patients.
