Opioid dependence with opioid-induced psychotic disorder, unspecified
ICD-10 F11.259 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of opioid dependence with opioid-induced psychotic disorder, unspecified.
Opioid dependence with opioid-induced psychotic disorder, unspecified (F11.259) refers to a condition where an individual has developed a dependence on opioids, leading to significant impairment or distress, and is experiencing psychotic symptoms as a direct result of opioid use. These psychotic symptoms may include hallucinations, delusions, or disorganized thinking. The unspecified nature of the code indicates that the specific type of psychotic disorder is not detailed in the documentation. Opioid dependence is characterized by a compulsive pattern of opioid use, tolerance, and withdrawal symptoms when the substance is not available. The presence of opioid-induced psychotic disorder complicates the clinical picture, as it may require immediate psychiatric intervention alongside substance use treatment. Treatment typically involves a combination of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for opioid dependence, such as buprenorphine or methadone, and psychiatric care to address the psychotic symptoms. Comprehensive treatment programs often include counseling, behavioral therapies, and support groups to aid recovery and prevent relapse.
