Hythiam Treatment to Be Tested in Texas

0

Hythiam Inc. said that the state of Texas will begin testing its Prometa treatment, designed to treat alcohol, methamphetamine and cocaine dependency, for use as a possible alternative to current probation, corrections and re-entry programs.


The 90-day pilot program in Collin County, just outside of Dallas, will involve 25 primarily methamphetamine dependent offenders on probation or those waiting to participate in the state’s substance abuse program.


Shares in Hythiam were up 31 cents to $8.17 in early trading Tuesday.
