Cocaine abuse, in remission
ICD-10 F14.11 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of cocaine abuse, in remission.
Cocaine abuse, in remission, refers to a state where an individual has previously engaged in the harmful use of cocaine but is currently not exhibiting any symptoms of substance use disorder. This condition is characterized by a significant reduction or complete cessation of cocaine use for a specified period, typically at least 12 months. During this time, the individual may have undergone treatment programs aimed at addressing their addiction, which can include behavioral therapies, counseling, and support groups. The remission status indicates that the individual is not currently experiencing withdrawal symptoms or intoxication effects associated with cocaine use. However, it is important to note that individuals in remission may still be at risk for relapse, and ongoing support and monitoring are often recommended to maintain their recovery. Clinicians should document the duration of remission and any treatment interventions that have been implemented to support the individual’s recovery journey.
