Poisoningwith hypoglycemics such as insulin, metformin, etc.

vs Insulin Shock Dx

Insulin shock can be used if patient goes into insulin shock however, in terms of too much MED, we also want to try and discern if a problem occurred because too much insulin/metformin was intentional, accidental OR iatrogenic.

If the right/normal amount of medication was taken and then the pt could not eat, don't code this poisoning code, just code Insulin Shock.

Hypoglycemics (oral or insulin) - HYPOGLYCEMICS (oral or insulin) - 46100

Hypoglycemics (oral or insulin) - Intentional - 46101

e.g. suicide attempt

Hypoglycemics (oral or insulin) - Accidental/toxicity - 46102

Patient "accidentally" took to much oral med or insulin.

Hypoglycemics (oral or insulin) - Iatrogenic - 46103

when patient is inadvertently given too much Insulin by a health care provider.
