F15.1Other stimulant abuse

F15.1 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other stimulant abuse. It belongs to category F15 (other stimulant related disorders), block F10-F19 (mental and behavioral disorders due to psychoactive substance use) and chapter 5 (mental, Behavioral and Neurodevelopmental disorders). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 8 subcodes must be used instead.

Within F15 (other stimulant related disorders), F15.1 is specifically for other stimulant abuse. Related codes cover dependence (F15.2) and use, unspecified (F15.9).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: F15.10 (uncomplicated), F15.11 (in remission), F15.12 (with intoxication), F15.13 (with withdrawal), F15.14 (with stimulant-induced mood disorder), F15.15 (with stimulant-induced psychotic disorder), F15.18 (with other stimulant-induced disorder) and F15.19 (with unspecified stimulant-induced disorder).

Don't report F15.1 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: other stimulant dependence (F15.2-) and other stimulant use, unspecified (F15.9-).

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
