2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F12.188 – Cannabis abuse with other cannabis-induced disorder

What it is

This code describes cannabis misuse or abuse with a separate cannabis-induced disorder. Use it when the record shows harmful cannabis use plus another clinically documented disorder caused by cannabis.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. The chart may note cannabis abuse along with symptoms or a disorder attributed to cannabis, such as behavioral, mood, or perceptual changes.

When to use this code

Use F12.188 when the provider documents cannabis abuse and specifies another cannabis-induced disorder. The diagnosis should clearly link the additional disorder to cannabis use. If the documentation is vague, check documentation before coding.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for uncomplicated cannabis abuse without an induced disorder. Do not assign it when the record only states cannabis use, dependence, or intoxication unless the additional cannabis-induced disorder is documented.

Coding tip

Code the documented cannabis-induced disorder only when the provider explicitly identifies the relationship to cannabis.
