Stimulant use disorders can involve substances such as cocaine, methamphetamine, and the misuse of prescription stimulants. Stimulant use can affect sleep, mood, appetite, concentration, cardiovascular health, and behavior and may contribute to anxiety, depression, paranoia, or other psychiatric symptoms.
Treatment commonly focuses on psychiatric evaluation, behavioral interventions, recovery support, management of co-occurring mental health conditions, and careful monitoring. Medication may also be considered when clinically appropriate for associated psychiatric symptoms or other conditions.
