Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) is a chronic condition requiring long-term treatment. While liquid methadone is widely used in Italy, it poses logistical challenges.This study assessed patients’ knowledge and satisfaction regarding the new tablet formulation of methadone in selected Italian Addiction Services (SerD). Two questionnaires were administered: a preliminary one (n = 45) assessing awareness and expectations, and a follow-up satisfaction questionnaire (n = 22) post-transition.Results showed high patient satisfaction with the tablet formulation, reporting advantages in practicality, discretion, and treatment adherence.Tablets were seen as a valid alternative to syrup, supporting their integration into clinical practice to improve treatment personalization and reduce stigma.
