Cocaine abuse with cocaine-induced sexual dysfunction

This code signifies a pattern of problematic cocaine use leading to clinically significant impairment or distress, specifically manifesting as sexual dysfunction directly attributable to the cocaine use. The patient exhibits symptoms of cocaine abuse, and their sexual difficulties are a direct physiological consequence of the substance.

Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a diagnosis of cocaine abuse and a co-occurring sexual dysfunction that the provider explicitly links to the cocaine use. This typically involves a clinical assessment confirming both the substance abuse and the drug-induced sexual impairment, ruling out other causes for the sexual dysfunction.

• Ensure the documentation explicitly states "abuse" of cocaine, not dependence, which would fall under a different subcategory.
• Verify the provider's assessment directly links the sexual dysfunction to the cocaine use; avoid assuming causality.
• Consider additional codes for any co-occurring mental health conditions or other physical manifestations of cocaine abuse.
