The patient is in clinic for withdrawal symptoms after being taken off the drug oxycodone (opioid), so F11.23, T40.2X5A are the ICD-10-CM codes that would be reported. The ICD-10-CM codes are the diagnosis code used to classify the condition of the patient. Over use of the drug may lead to muscle weakness and other heart and breath issues.
