Additional Info
Common sedatives or hypnotics
- benzodiazepines
- barbiturates
- dilantin and most other antiseizure drugs
- tricyclics and most anti-depressants (but not lithium, which is categorized under “Psychiatric drug NOS”)
- xylazine is a non-opiate sedative, analgesic and muscle relaxant authorized for veterinary use in the US, now being found in a number of illicit drug mixtures such as fentanyl, cocaine and heroin
Withdrawal codes
- This category indicates that the patient has current withdrawal symptoms or syndrome for the indicated substance.
- While withdrawal USUALLY goes along with chronic abuse/dependence/addiction, there are drugs where one may get withdrawal symptoms after a first use (e.g. methamphetamines)
- Thus, if (as will often but not universally be the case) a person in withdrawal does have a chronic abuse/dependence/addiction for that substance, you SHOULD also code that.
