2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F13.930 – Sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic use, unspecified with withdrawal, uncomplicated
What it is
This code identifies withdrawal from a sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic substance when the drug type is not further specified. It applies to an uncomplicated withdrawal presentation, meaning no delirium, seizures, or other named complications are documented.
Clinical signs
Typical withdrawal features may include anxiety, tremor, insomnia, irritability, and autonomic symptoms. Clinical features vary; refer to documentation, and confirm that the record supports withdrawal without complication.
When to use this code
Use this code when the clinician documents withdrawal from an unspecified sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic and does not describe a more specific substance. It fits encounters for assessment, monitoring, or treatment of uncomplicated withdrawal. If the note names a specific drug or a complication, code that documented scenario instead.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for intoxication, dependence without withdrawal, or withdrawal with delirium, seizure, or other complication. Check documentation if the substance class or withdrawal status is unclear.
Coding tip
Code the withdrawal presentation only when the record clearly supports it and no complication is documented.
