Cocaine-induced impulse control transtorno is characterised by persistently repeated behaviours in which there is recurrent failure to resist an impulse, drive, or urge to perform an act that is rewarding to the person, at least in the short-term, despite longer-term harm either to the individual or to others (e.g., fire setting or stealing sem apparent motive, repetitive sexual behaviour, aggressive outbursts) that develop during or soon after intoxicação com or abstinência from cocaine. The intensity or duration of the symptoms is substantially in excess of disturbances of impulse control that are characteristic of Cocaine intoxicação or Cocaine abstinência. The amount and duration of cocaine uso must be capable of producing disturbances of impulse control. The symptoms are not better explained by a primary mental transtorno (e.g., an Impulse control transtorno, a transtorno due to addictive behaviours), as might be the case if the impulse control disturbances preceded the onset of the cocaine uso, if the symptoms persist for a substantial period of time after cessation of the cocaine uso or abstinência, or if there is other evidence of a pre-existing primary mental transtorno com impulse control symptoms (e.g., a history of prior episodes not associated com cocaine uso).
