2026 ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Code F19.920 – Other psychoactive substance use, unspecified with intoxication, uncomplicated
What it is
This code identifies intoxication from an unspecified psychoactive substance, without complications. Use it when the substance is not named and the record shows acute intoxication only.
Clinical signs
Clinical features vary; refer to documentation. Typical intoxication findings may include altered behavior, impaired judgment, or reduced coordination, but you should confirm the documented substance-related presentation.
When to use this code
Use F19.920 when the provider documents intoxication from another psychoactive substance and does not identify the specific agent. It applies when the episode is uncomplicated and there is no mention of delirium, withdrawal, or other associated disorder. If the substance is later specified, code that more precise diagnosis instead.
Do not use for
Do not use this code for withdrawal, dependence, or abuse without intoxication. Also avoid it when the substance is known and a more specific ICD-10 code is documented.
Coding tip
Check the note for the exact substance and any complication before assigning F19.920.
