What is Cocaine Use Disorder?

Cocaine use disorder is when the use of cocaine harms a person’s health or social functioning, or when a person becomes dependent on cocaine. The powdered form of cocaine can be snorted or dissolved in water and injected. “Crack,” which is cocaine in a rock crystal form, can be heated and its vapors smoked.

Cocaine use disorder is treatable, but it takes perseverance and determination. Talk to your doctor if you think you have cocaine use disorder.
