Aim and Background: Substance use disorders are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. However, little is known about the effectiveness of treatment for patients with both diseases. Also, standard drug treatment has shown mostly negative outcomes. This study aimed to determine the effect of cognitive behavioral therapy on ADHD symptoms in men with substance use disorder.
