- ICD-10 Code for:
- Adverse effect of aminoglycosides
- Is Billable?
- Not Valid for Submission
- Code Navigator:
T36.5X5 is a non-specific and non-billable diagnosis code code, consider using a code with a higher level of specificity for a diagnosis of adverse effect of aminoglycosides. The code is not specific and is NOT valid for the year 2024 for the submission of HIPAA-covered transactions. Category or Header define the heading of a category of codes that may be further subdivided by the use of 4th, 5th, 6th or 7th characters.
Specific Coding Applicable to Adverse effect of aminoglycosides
Non-specific codes like T36.5X5 require more digits to indicate the appropriate level of specificity. Consider using any of the following ICD-10-CM codes with a higher level of specificity when coding for adverse effect of aminoglycosides:

Clinical Information
Amikacin
a broad-spectrum antibiotic derived from kanamycin. it is reno- and oto-toxic like the other aminoglycoside antibiotics.Kanamycin Kinase
a class of enzymes that inactivate aminocyclitol-aminoglycoside antibiotics (aminoglycosides) by regiospecific phosphorylation of the 3' and/or 5' hydroxyl.Dibekacin
analog of kanamycin with antitubercular as well as broad-spectrum antimicrobial properties.Framycetin
a component of neomycin that is produced by streptomyces fradiae. on hydrolysis it yields neamine and neobiosamine b. (from merck index, 11th ed)Kanamycin
antibiotic complex produced by streptomyces kanamyceticus from japanese soil. comprises 3 components: kanamycin a, the major component, and kanamycins b and c, the minor components.Kanamycin Resistance
nonsusceptibility of bacteria to the antibiotic kanamycin, which can bind to their 70s ribosomes and cause misreading of messenger rna.Netilmicin
semisynthetic 1-n-ethyl derivative of sisomycin, an aminoglycoside antibiotic with action similar to gentamicin, but less ear and kidney toxicity.Novobiocin
an antibiotic compound derived from streptomyces niveus. it has a chemical structure similar to coumarin. novobiocin binds to dna gyrase, and blocks adenosine triphosphatase (atpase) activity. (from reynolds, martindale the extra pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p189)Paromomycin
an aminoglycoside antibacterial and antiprotozoal agent produced by species of streptomyces.Ribostamycin
a broad-spectrum antimicrobial isolated from streptomyces ribosifidicus.Sisomicin
antibiotic produced by micromonospora inyoensis. it is closely related to gentamicin c1a, one of the components of the gentamicin complex (gentamicins).Spectinomycin
an antibiotic produced by streptomyces spectabilis. it is active against gram-negative bacteria and used for the treatment of gonorrhea.Tobramycin
an aminoglycoside, broad-spectrum antibiotic produced by streptomyces tenebrarius. it is effective against gram-negative bacteria, especially the pseudomonas species. it is a 10% component of the antibiotic complex, nebramycin, produced by the same species.Tobramycin, Dexamethasone Drug Combination
a topical preparation of tobramycin and dexamethasone that is used for treating or preventing superficial bacterial infections of the eye.
Coding Guidelines
When coding an adverse effect of a drug that has been correctly prescribed and properly administered, assign the appropriate code for the nature of the adverse effect followed by the appropriate code for the adverse effect of the drug.
The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from block Poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of systemic antibiotics (T36). Use the following options for the aplicable episode of care:
- A - initial encounter
- D - subsequent encounter
- S - sequela
Table of Drugs and Chemicals
The code is referenced in the Table of Drugs and Chemicals, this table contains a classification of drugs, industrial solvents, corrosive gases, noxious plants, pesticides, and other toxic agents.
According to ICD-10-CM coding guidelines it is advised to do not code directly from the Table of Drugs and Chemicals, instead always refer back to the Tabular List when doing the initial coding. Each substance in the table is assigned a code according to the poisoning classification and external causes of adverse effects. It is important to use as many codes as necessary to specify all reported drugs, medicinal or chemical substances. If the same diagnosis code describes the causative agent for more than one adverse reaction, poisoning, toxic effect or underdosing, utilize the code only once.
Patient Education
Drug Reactions
Most of the time, medicines make our lives better. They reduce aches and pains, fight infections, and control problems such as high blood pressure or diabetes. But medicines can also cause unwanted reactions, such as drug interactions, side effects, and allergies.
What is a drug interaction?
A drug interaction is a change in the way a drug acts in the body when taken with certain other drugs, foods, or supplements or when taken while you have certain medical conditions. Examples include:
- Two drugs, such as aspirin and blood thinners
- Drugs and food, such as statins and grapefruit
- Drugs and supplements, such as gingko and blood thinners
- Drugs and medical conditions, such as aspirin and peptic ulcers
Interactions could cause a drug to be more or less effective, cause side effects, or change the way one or both drugs work.
What are side effects?
Side effects are unwanted, usually unpleasant, effects caused by medicines. Most are mild, such as a stomachache, dry mouth, or drowsiness, and go away after you stop taking the medicine. Others can be more serious. Sometimes a drug can interact with a disease that you have and cause a side effect. For example, if you have a heart condition, certain decongestants can cause you to have a rapid heartbeat.
What are drug allergies?
Drug allergies are another type of reaction. They can range from mild to life-threatening. Skin reactions, such as hives and rashes, are the most common type. Anaphylaxis, a serious allergic reaction, is less common.
How can I stay safe when taking medicines?
When you start a new prescription or over-the-counter medicine, make sure you understand how to take it correctly. Know which other medicines, foods, and supplements you need to avoid. Always talk to your health care provider or pharmacist if you have questions about your medicines.
