Morphology
The meaning 'a person who is addicted to cocaine' is directly and compositionally built from 'cocaine' (the drug) + 'addict' (a person unable to stop substance use). This noun-noun/compound pattern is transparent and cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both constituents will readily understand the phrase.
Etymology
The phrase cocaine addict joins cocaine, a powerful drug, and addict, a person who cannot stop using something. Imagine someone who keeps going back for the drug again and again, and you see why it means 'a person who is addicted to cocaine'.
