About T37.5X3

T37.5X3 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for poisoning by antiviral drugs, assault. It belongs to category T37 (poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of other systemic anti-infectives and antiparasitics), block T36-T50 (poisoning by, adverse effects of and underdosing of drugs, medicaments and biological substances) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within T37.5X (poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of antiviral drugs), T37.5X3 is specifically for poisoning by antiviral drugs, assault. Related codes cover poisoning by antiviral drugs, accidental (unintentional) (T37.5X1), poisoning by antiviral drugs, intentional self-harm (T37.5X2), poisoning by antiviral drugs, undetermined (T37.5X4), adverse effect of antiviral drugs (T37.5X5) and underdosing of antiviral drugs (T37.5X6).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

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