ICD-10 Code F15.920 – Other stimulant use, unspecified with intoxication, uncomplicated (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F15.920 – Other stimulant use, unspecified with intoxication, uncomplicated
What it is
This code identifies intoxication from an unspecified stimulant in the amphetamine-type or related stimulant category, without documented complications. Use it when the record confirms stimulant intoxication but does not specify the exact substance.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly noted findings include agitation, euphoria, increased alertness, anxiety, or other acute stimulant effects consistent with intoxication.
When to use this code
Use F15.920 when the clinician documents stimulant intoxication and does not name a more specific stimulant. It fits encounters where the intoxication is uncomplicated, meaning no associated delirium, psychosis, or other coded complication is documented. If details are incomplete, check documentation before assigning the code.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for stimulant dependence, withdrawal, or intoxication with a documented complication. Also avoid it when the specific stimulant is identified and a more precise code is available.
Coding tip
Code the most specific stimulant and presentation documented; if the chart only says “stimulant intoxication,” F15.920 may be appropriate.
