ICD-10 Code F19.132 – Other psychoactive substance abuse with withdrawal with perceptual disturbance (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F19.132 – Other psychoactive substance abuse with withdrawal with perceptual disturbance
What it is
This code identifies abuse of another psychoactive substance, with withdrawal symptoms that include perceptual disturbance. Use it when the record shows substance abuse and withdrawal-related changes in perception, such as hallucination-like experiences.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. You may see withdrawal symptoms plus altered perception, such as misperceptions, hallucinations, or other sensory disturbances documented by the clinician.
When to use this code
Use this code when the provider documents abuse of a psychoactive substance other than alcohol, tobacco, or opioids, and specifically links withdrawal to perceptual disturbance. It fits records that clearly describe withdrawal with hallucinations or similar sensory changes.
Do not infer the diagnosis from behavior alone; the note should support both abuse and withdrawal. If the substance, withdrawal status, or perceptual disturbance is unclear, check documentation.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for dependence, intoxication, or uncomplicated withdrawal without perceptual disturbance. Also avoid it when the substance involved is alcohol, nicotine, or opioids.
Coding tip
Confirm that the chart names both abuse and withdrawal with perceptual disturbance before assigning F19.132.
