2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F15.28 – Other stimulant dependence with other stimulant-induced disorder

What it is

This code identifies dependence on other stimulants, such as amphetamine-type or similar substances, when the patient also has a stimulant-induced disorder. It reflects both substance dependence and a related mental or physical condition caused by the stimulant.

Clinical signs

Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. You may see compulsive stimulant use, tolerance, withdrawal, or continued use despite harm, along with stimulant-related mood, psychotic, sleep, or anxiety symptoms.

When to use this code

Use this code when the record documents stimulant dependence plus another stimulant-induced disorder and the substance is not one of the more specific coded stimulants. Confirm the provider links the disorder to stimulant use. If the chart only states use or abuse without dependence, this code is not appropriate.

Do not use for

Do not use it for cocaine-related disorders or for stimulant use without dependence. Check documentation if the record does not clearly identify the stimulant-induced disorder.

Coding tip

Code both the dependence and the induced disorder only when the provider documents both conditions.
