  • Do not confuse this group of codes with Template:ICD10 Guideline overdose or Template:ICD10 Guideline poisoning by non-pharmaceuticals
  • The definition of this category requires that both of the following be true: (1) something bad happened as a direct result of the agent AND (2) the agent was used with an appropriate dosing regimen.
    • The “something bad” can be a threat to life/limb/organ function -- but what distinguishes this category from Category:Overdose is whether the dose/dosing regimen was appropriate or not.
  • These adverse effects are almost all immune-mediated and include: allergic reactions, hypersensitivity reactions, more vaguely defined “adverse drug reactions”
