Background: Psychosocial treatment for nalbuphine addiction is scarcely reported in the literature. Additionally, it is unclear that what is the efficacy of psychosocial treatment in nalbuphine addiction in vulnerable people, such as in war-affected people. Methods: We tried to find the efficacy of psychosocial treatment in nalbuphine addicts. In the current study, we evaluated retrospective data from war-torn areas of Pakistan. A total of 13 medical records of subjects who were suffering from nalbuphine addiction were included and analyzed. Results: One group post-test only research design was followed to check the impact of psychosocial treatment on various outcomes, including self-care, social interaction, and daily activates. Conclusion: All the sub-parameter included in the aforementioned outcomes were significantly high. The results of the study suggest that psychosocial intervention poses a huge potential as one of the interventions for the treatment of nalbuphine addiction.
