Poisoning by mineralocorticoids and antag, self-harm, subs

This code indicates a diagnosis of poisoning resulting from the deliberate self-administration of mineralocorticoids or their antagonists. The patient is receiving follow-up care for this intentional self-harm event, which could include monitoring for complications, managing ongoing symptoms, or addressing psychological aspects.

Apply this code for subsequent encounters when a patient is being treated for the effects of a self-inflicted overdose of mineralocorticoids or their antagonists. This includes visits for continued medical management, psychiatric evaluation, or monitoring of organ function after the initial acute phase.

• Ensure documentation clearly states the poisoning was intentional self-harm and that this is a follow-up visit.
• Always sequence this code after any acute poisoning codes (e.g., T36-T65 with 6th character A) if the patient is still in the acute phase of treatment.
• Do not use this code for accidental poisonings or adverse effects of properly administered medications.
