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]].

{{Discussion}} Do we need the base code of these? We may have existing entries for it, but should it be de-activated going forward?

===Hypoglycemics (oral or insulin) - Accidental/toxicity - 46102 ===
Don't use, use [[Insulin Shock]] instead.
Patient "accidentally"  took to much oral med or insulin.
 
{{discussion}}
So there would be no circumstances under which this code would be used any longer? If so we should inactivate, ie. make impossible to code in future.
