M10.2Drug-induced gout

M10.2 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for drug-induced gout. It belongs to category M10 (gout), block M05-M14 (inflammatory polyarthropathies) and chapter 13 (diseases of the musculoskeletal system and connective tissue). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 10 subcodes must be used instead.

Within M10 (gout), M10.2 is specifically for drug-induced gout. Related codes cover idiopathic gout (M10.0), Lead-induced gout (M10.1), due to renal impairment (M10.3), other secondary gout (M10.4) and unspecified (M10.9).

To report this condition, pick the subcode that matches the documentation: M10.20 (unspecified site), M10.21 (shoulder), M10.22 (elbow), M10.23 (wrist), M10.24 (hand), M10.25 (hip), M10.26 (knee), M10.27 (ankle and foot) and 2 more.

Use an additional code for adverse effect, if applicable, to identify drug (T36-T50 with fifth or sixth character 5). Use an additional code to identify: Autonomic neuropathy in diseases classified elsewhere (G99.0), Calculus of urinary tract in diseases classified elsewhere (N22), Cardiomyopathy in diseases classified elsewhere (I43), Disorders of external ear in diseases classified elsewhere (H61.1-, H62.8-), Disorders of iris and ciliary body in diseases classified elsewhere (H22) and 1 more.

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