T49.1X4Poisoning by antipruritics, undetermined

T49.1X4 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for poisoning by antipruritics, undetermined. It belongs to category T49 (poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of topical agents primarily affecting skin and mucous membrane and by ophthalmological, otorhinorlaryngological and dental drugs), block T36-T50 (poisoning by, adverse effects of and underdosing of drugs, medicaments and biological substances) and chapter 19 (injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within T49.1X (poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of antipruritics), T49.1X4 is specifically for poisoning by antipruritics, undetermined. Related codes cover poisoning by antipruritics, accidental (unintentional) (T49.1X1), poisoning by antipruritics, intentional self-harm (T49.1X2), poisoning by antipruritics, assault (T49.1X3), adverse effect of antipruritics (T49.1X5) and underdosing of antipruritics (T49.1X6).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
