ICD-10 Code F16.288 – Hallucinogen dependence with other hallucinogen-induced disorder (2026): Diagnosis, Symptoms & Billing Guide
2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F16.288 – Hallucinogen dependence with other hallucinogen-induced disorder
What it is
Use this code for a documented hallucinogen dependence when the patient also has another hallucinogen-induced disorder that is not separately classified. It indicates both ongoing dependence and an additional substance-related mental or behavioral disturbance.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Commonly, records describe compulsive hallucinogen use, difficulty stopping, and evidence of a related induced disorder such as mood, anxiety, or perceptual disturbance.
When to use this code
Use F16.288 when the provider documents hallucinogen dependence plus another hallucinogen-induced disorder and does not assign a more specific code. You may see it in assessments, discharge summaries, or problem lists that clearly link both conditions. Check documentation if the induced disorder is named but the dependence is not confirmed.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for hallucinogen use without dependence, or for an induced disorder from another substance class. If the record does not support dependence or the additional induced disorder, check documentation.
Coding tip
Code both elements only when the chart clearly supports dependence and a separate hallucinogen-induced disorder.
