The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of Transcranial electrical stimulation (tES) on the rate of drug abuse temptation  among adult men with substance abuse disorder in Safadasht.To achieve this goal, a statistical population was used that included all adult men with substance abuse disorder in the Akhavan center located in Safadasht.The experimental research design is a pre-test post-test with a control group and an experimental group that the sample size of up to 30 people (15 people in the experimental group and 15 people in the control group) is available using sampling method. The number of meeting held was 10 meeting and was held once a week in the center. In this study, a material temptation questionnaire as well as Transcranial electrical stimulation was performed on the sample group. Multivariate analysis of covariance was (Mancova) used for statistical analysis.  The findings showed that there is a significant difference between the mean of the temptation  of  drug abuse  in adult men with impaired drug abuse disorder (p>0.01);  Therefore, it could be concluded that there was a significant difference by eliminating the effect of pre-test scores between the propensity adjusted average of drug abuse according to group.  According to the results, it seems that Transcranial electrical stimulation of the brain can reduce the symptoms of cravings in people with drug abuse. Therefore, addiction specialists are recommended to use transcranial electrical stimulation as an intervention method in the treatment of these people.
