Code Classification

  • Injury, poisoning and certain other consequences of external causes
    (S00–T88)
    • Poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of drugs, medicaments and biological substances
      (T36-T50)
      • Poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of primarily systemic and hematological agents, not elsewhere classified
        (T45)

T45.0X1 is a non-specific and non-billable diagnosis code code, consider using a code with a higher level of specificity for a diagnosis of poisoning by antiallergic and antiemetic drugs, accidental (unintentional). 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 Poisoning by antiallerg/antiemetic, accidental

Non-specific codes like T45.0X1 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 poisoning by antiallerg/antiemetic, accidental:

  • Use T45.0X1A for initial encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T45.0X1D for subsequent encounter - BILLABLE CODE

  • Use T45.0X1S for sequela - BILLABLE CODE

  • Cinnarizine

    a piperazine derivative having histamine h1-receptor and calcium-channel blocking activity with vasodilating and antiemetic properties but it induces parkinsonian disorders.
  • Clemastine

    a histamine h1 antagonist used as the hydrogen fumarate in hay fever, rhinitis, allergic skin conditions, and pruritus. it causes drowsiness.
  • Cyclizine

    a histamine h1 antagonist given by mouth or parenterally for the control of postoperative and drug-induced vomiting and in motion sickness. (from martindale, the extra pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p935)
  • Cyproheptadine

    a serotonin antagonist and a histamine h1 blocker used as antipruritic, appetite stimulant, antiallergic, and for the post-gastrectomy dumping syndrome, etc.
  • Dimenhydrinate

    a drug combination that contains diphenhydramine and theophylline. it is used for treating vertigo, motion sickness, and nausea associated with pregnancy.
  • Dimethindene

    a histamine h1 antagonist. it is used in hypersensitivity reactions, in rhinitis, for pruritus, and in some common cold remedies.
  • Diphenhydramine

    a histamine h1 antagonist used as an antiemetic, antitussive, for dermatoses and pruritus, for hypersensitivity reactions, as a hypnotic, an antiparkinson, and as an ingredient in common cold preparations. it has some undesired antimuscarinic and sedative effects.
  • Domperidone

    a specific blocker of dopamine receptors. it speeds gastrointestinal peristalsis, causes prolactin release, and is used as antiemetic and tool in the study of dopaminergic mechanisms.
  • Doxylamine

    histamine h1 antagonist with pronounced sedative properties. it is used in allergies and as an antitussive, antiemetic, and hypnotic. doxylamine has also been administered in veterinary applications and was formerly used in parkinsonism.
  • Granisetron

    a serotonin receptor (5ht-3 selective) antagonist that has been used as an antiemetic for cancer chemotherapy patients.
  • Ketotifen

    histamine h1 antagonist with sedative action used as a hypnotic and in allergies.
  • Metoclopramide

    a dopamine d2 antagonist that is used as an antiemetic.

    histamine h1 antagonist used in allergic rhinitis; asthma; and urticaria. it is a component of cough and cold medicines. it may cause drowsiness.

Coding Guidelines

When coding a poisoning or reaction to the improper use of a medication (e.g., overdose, wrong substance given or taken in error, wrong route of administration), first assign the appropriate code from categories T36-T50. The poisoning codes have an associated intent as their 5th or 6th character (accidental, intentional self-harm, assault and undetermined. If the intent of the poisoning is unknown or unspecified, code the intent as accidental intent. The undetermined intent is only for use if the documentation in the record specifies that the intent cannot be determined. Use additional code(s) for all manifestations of poisonings.

The appropriate 7th character is to be added to each code from block Poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of primarily systemic and hematological agents, not elsewhere classified (T45). Use the following options for the aplicable episode of care:

  • A - initial encounter
  • D - subsequent encounter
  • S - sequela

Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries

The following annotation back-references are applicable to this diagnosis code. The Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries is a list of ICD-10-CM codes, organized "head to toe" into chapters and sections with coding notes and guidance for inclusions, exclusions, descriptions and more.


Inclusion Terms

Inclusion Terms
These terms are the conditions for which that code is to be used. The terms may be synonyms of the code title, or, in the case of "other specified" codes, the terms are a list of the various conditions assigned to that code. The inclusion terms are not necessarily exhaustive. Additional terms found only in the Alphabetic Index may also be assigned to a code.
  • Poisoning by antiallergic and antiemetic drugs NOS

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


Medication Errors

Medicines treat infectious diseases, prevent problems from chronic diseases, and ease pain. But medicines can also cause harmful reactions if not used correctly. Errors can happen in the hospital, at the health care provider's office, at the pharmacy, or at home. You can help prevent errors by:

  • Knowing your medicines. When you get a prescription, ask the name of the medicine and check to make sure that the pharmacy gave you the right medicine. Make sure that you understand how often you should take the medicine and how long you should take it.
  • Keeping a list of medicines.
    • Write down all of the medicines that you are taking, including the names of your medicines, how much you take, and when you take them. Make sure to include any over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, supplements, and herbs that you take.
    • List the medicines that you are allergic to or that have caused you problems in the past.
    • Take this list with you every time you see a health care provider.
  • Reading medicine labels and following the directions. Don't just rely on your memory - read the medication label every time. Be especially careful when giving medicines to children.
  • Asking questions. If you don't know the answers to these questions, ask your health care provider or pharmacist:
    • Why am I taking this medicine?
    • What are the common side effects?
    • What should I do if I have side effects?
    • When should I stop this medicine?
    • Can I take this medicine with the other medicines and supplements on my list?
    • Do I need to avoid certain foods or alcohol while taking this medicine?
