•This comparative study included subjects with opioid use disorder to evaluate the effect of iTBS-MMT combination therapy.•Subjects in the iTBS-MMT group had significant improvement in anxiety, depression and craving reduction.•No serious adverse events were observed during treatment. Prior studies indicate that subjects undergoing methadone maintenance therapy (MMT) may experience anxiety, depression and cravings. This study aimed to explore the impact of intermittent theta burst stimulation (iTBS)-MMT combination on craving and emotional symptoms of opioid use disorder. This comparative study included subjects with opioid use disorder at the Methadone Maintenance Clinic of Pudong New Area between September 2019 and March 2020. The subjects were divided into two groups: those who received iTBS-MMT combination treatment (iTBS-MMT) and those who received MMT treatment and sham stimulation treatment (MMT). Outcomes were reduction rate of anxiety, depression and craving. Anxiety was measured by Hamilton Anxiety (HAMA) scale, depression was determined by Hamilton Depression (HAMD) scale and craving was analyzed using visual analog scale. A total of 76 subjects completed the treatment, with 38 subjects in each group. Twenty days after treatment, subjects in the iTBS-MMT group had significant improvement of anxiety (HAMA reduction rate), depression (HAMD reduction rate) and craving (Craving reduction rate) reduction rate compared with MMT group. iTBS-MMT combination treatment may produce better drug craving reduction and emotional improvement than MMT alone.
