FERNANDEZ-MONTALVO, J.  e  LOREA, I.. Comorbidity between cocaine addiction and personality disorders. Anales Sis San Navarra [online]. 2007, vol.30, n.2, pp.225-231. ISSN 1137-6627.

The aim of this paper was to review the current knowledge about the comorbidity between cocaine dependence and personality disorders. Results concerning a specific profile of cocaine patients are not conclusive. The prevalence rate of personality disorders in cocaine dependents is very heterogeneous (with a mean of 66% of cases), and a great variability is observed between all the studies carried out. There is a tendency for a higher proportion of cocaine dependents to be found within the cluster B category (mainly antisocial and borderline). Lastly, implications of this kind of study for future research and clinical practice are commented upon.
