2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F12.129 – Cannabis abuse with intoxication, unspecified

What it is

This code identifies cannabis abuse when the patient is also documented as intoxicated, but the intoxication type is not further specified. Use it when the record supports both abuse and current intoxication.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly reported findings include impaired judgment, altered perception, euphoria, anxiety, or coordination problems consistent with cannabis intoxication.

When to use this code

Use this code when the provider documents cannabis abuse with intoxication and does not specify the intoxication details further. It may fit emergency, urgent care, or behavioral health notes describing recent use with acute effects. If the record only states cannabis use without abuse or intoxication, check documentation.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for cannabis dependence, uncomplicated cannabis use, or intoxication without abuse. If the chart specifies a different cannabis-related disorder, code that documented condition instead.

Coding tip

Confirm that both abuse and intoxication are documented; if either element is missing, check documentation before coding F12.129.
