The ICD-10 code for Cannabis use, unspecified with intoxication is F12.92.
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F12.92 – Cannabis use, unspecified with intoxication

What it is

F12.92 identifies cannabis use with intoxication when the record does not specify the type of use disorder. It applies when acute cannabis effects are documented, but the note does not support a more specific diagnosis.

Clinical signs

Typical findings include recent cannabis use with altered behavior, impaired attention, euphoria, anxiety, or perceptual changes. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation.

When to use this code

Use this code when the clinician documents cannabis intoxication and does not specify abuse, dependence, or other cannabis-related disorder. It also fits encounters where the record confirms intoxication but leaves the underlying use pattern unspecified. Check documentation for any additional substance-related diagnoses.

Do not use for

Do not use it when the chart identifies cannabis abuse or dependence with intoxication, because those codes are more specific. Do not assign it for remote cannabis use without current intoxication.

Coding tip

Code the intoxication only when the provider clearly links current symptoms to cannabis use and the diagnosis remains unspecified.
