About coding Nitritoid crisis

The ICD-10-CM code for Nitritoid crisis is I95.2 (Hypotension due to drugs).

Within I95 (hypotension), I95.2 is specifically for hypotension due to drugs. Related codes cover idiopathic hypotension (I95.0), orthostatic hypotension (I95.1), of hemodialysis (I95.3), other hypotension (I95.8) and unspecified (I95.9).

Use an additional code for adverse effect, if applicable, to identify drug (T36-T50 with fifth or sixth character 5).

It is not a CC or MCC, so as a secondary diagnosis it doesn't change the MS-DRG severity level.
