2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F13.932 – Sedative, hypnotic or anxiolytic use, unspecified with withdrawal with perceptual disturbances

What it is

This code identifies withdrawal from sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic use when the drug is unspecified and perceptual disturbances are present. It reflects a documented withdrawal state, not simple ongoing use.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Perceptual disturbances may include altered sensory perception, such as hallucinations or misperceptions, along with other withdrawal findings.

When to use this code

Use this code when the record clearly documents withdrawal from an unspecified sedative, hypnotic, or anxiolytic and notes perceptual disturbances. It fits encounters where the clinician identifies withdrawal as the active problem. If the substance is named, code the specific substance instead.

Do not use for

Do not use this code for uncomplicated substance use, intoxication, or withdrawal without perceptual disturbances. Check documentation if the record does not clearly support withdrawal or if another substance category is specified.

Coding tip

Confirm both withdrawal and perceptual disturbance are documented before assigning F13.932.
