2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F13.182 – Sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic abuse with sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic-induced sleep disorder

What it is

This code describes abuse of sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic drugs when the use has led to a sleep disorder caused by the substance. It indicates both the pattern of misuse and the related sleep disturbance.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly documented findings include abnormal sleep patterns, insomnia, hypersomnia, or other sleep disruption linked to sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic use.

When to use this code

Use this code when the record clearly states abuse of a sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic and also identifies a substance-induced sleep disorder. You should code the condition only when both elements are documented. If the sleep disorder is not specified as substance-induced, check documentation.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for simple medication use, dependence, or intoxication without abuse. Also avoid it when the sleep problem is unrelated to the substance or when documentation is incomplete.

Coding tip

Confirm that the provider links the sleep disorder to the abused substance before assigning F13.182.
