Poisoning by fluoroquinolone antibiotics, self-harm, subs

This code signifies a patient presenting for follow-up care related to a self-inflicted overdose of fluoroquinolone antibiotics. The poisoning was a deliberate act of self-harm, and the patient is now being seen for ongoing management or complications from this event.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters where a patient is receiving treatment for the lingering effects, complications, or mental health follow-up stemming from an intentional fluoroquinolone overdose. This includes visits for monitoring organ damage, managing psychiatric sequelae, or addressing other chronic issues resulting from the self-poisoning.

• Ensure documentation clearly states the poisoning was intentional self-harm and involves fluoroquinolone antibiotics.
• The "D" seventh character indicates a subsequent encounter, meaning the patient is receiving follow-up care after the initial acute treatment.
• Always code additional diagnoses for specific manifestations or complications of the poisoning (e.g., kidney failure, cardiac arrhythmias, psychiatric conditions).
