F19.2Other psychoactive substance dependence

F19.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for other psychoactive substance dependence. It belongs to category F19 (other psychoactive substance 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 10 subcodes must be used instead.

Within F19 (other psychoactive substance related disorders), F19.2 is specifically for other psychoactive substance dependence. Related codes cover abuse (F19.1) and use, unspecified (F19.9).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: F19.20 (uncomplicated), F19.21 (in remission), F19.22 (with intoxication), F19.23 (with withdrawal), F19.24 (with psychoactive substance-induced mood disorder), F19.25 (with psychoactive substance-induced psychotic disorder), F19.26 (with psychoactive substance-induced persisting amnestic disorder), F19.27 (with psychoactive substance-induced persisting dementia) and 2 more.

Don't report F19.2 together with the conditions in its Excludes1 note: other psychoactive substance abuse (F19.1-) and other psychoactive substance use, unspecified (F19.9-).

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