Ex-tobacco user

Definition: This block contains a wide variety of disorders that differ in severity and clinical form but that are all attributable to the use of one or more psychoactive substances, which may or may not have been medically prescribed. The third character of the code identifies the substance involved, and the fourth character specifies the clinical state. The codes should be used, as required, for each substance specified, but it should be noted that not all fourth character codes are applicable to all substances. Identification of the psychoactive substance should be based on as many sources of information as possible. These include self-report data, analysis of blood and other body fluids, characteristic physical and psychological symptom ...[+++]s, clinical signs and behaviour, and other evidence such as a drug being in the patient's possession or reports from informed third parties. Many drug users take more than one type of psychoactive substance. The main diagnosis should be classified, whenever possible, according to the substance or class of substances that has caused or contributed most to the presenting clinical syndrome. Other diagnoses should be coded when other psychoactive substances have been taken in intoxicating amounts (common fourth character .0) or to the extent of causing harm (common fourth character .1), dependence (common fourth character .2) or other disorders (common fourth character .3-.9). Only in cases in which patterns of psychoactive substance-taking are chaotic and indiscriminate, or in which the contributions of different psychoactive substances are inextricably mixed, should the diagnosis of disorders resulting from multiple drug use (F19.-) be used. | Modifiers The following fourth-character subdivisions are for use with categories F10-F19: Code Title .0 Acute intoxication A condition that follows the administration of a psychoactive substance resulting in disturbances in level of consciousness, cognition, perception, affect or behaviour, o ...

Definition: This category should be used when two or more psychoactive substances are known to be involved, but it is impossible to assess which substance is contributing most to the disorders. It should also be used when the exact identity of some or even all the psychoactive substances being used is uncertain or unknown, since many multiple drug users themselves often do not know the details of what they are taking. | misuse of drugs NOS

Mental and behavioural disorders due to use of tobacco

Although not recent, a comparative analysis of these products has shown that the concentration of certain strongly carcinogenic ingredients such as benzopyrene and benzanthracene is higher in cannabis smoke than tobacco smoke.[31] A more recent study cited by INSERM confirms this higher concentration of benzopyrene: 2.9 micrograms/100 joints compared to 1.7 for 100 cigarettes.[32] Of course, it will be argued that tobacco users generally smoke many more cigarettes a day than even chronic users of marijuana, that it is the total volume of toxic substances inhaled over time that counts, and that it can be difficult to distinguish the effec ...[+++]ts of cannabis from those of tobacco since joints often contain both products and users of cannabis are also often tobacco smokers.[33]

I just wanted to add regarding your first question that for the health care costs of Canadian users, according to 2002 data, the average cannabis user costs the health care system about $20 a year, the average tobacco user $822 a year, and the average alcohol user $165 a year.
