ICD-10 Code F15.19 – Other stimulant abuse with unspecified stimulant-induced disorder (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F15.19 – Other stimulant abuse with unspecified stimulant-induced disorder
What it is
F15.19 identifies abuse of other stimulants when the record also documents an unspecified stimulant-induced disorder. Use it when the stimulant is not better classified elsewhere and the induced condition is not named more specifically.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Notes may describe stimulant misuse with related mental or behavioral changes, but the induced disorder is not specified enough for a more precise code.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents stimulant abuse and an unspecified stimulant-induced disorder, such as intoxication-related or substance-induced symptoms without a clearer diagnosis. It is appropriate when the stimulant type is “other” and no more specific F15 code applies.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for stimulant dependence, remission states, or cases where the induced disorder is identified more specifically. Check documentation if the record names a different stimulant or a separate psychiatric diagnosis.
Coding tip
Confirm both elements in the note: stimulant abuse and an unspecified stimulant-induced disorder.
