Opioid use, unspecified with opioid-induced mood disorder

This code signifies a patient's unspecified pattern of opioid use that has resulted in a clinically significant mood disturbance. The mood disorder is directly attributable to the physiological effects of opioid use, rather than an independent psychiatric condition.

Apply this code when documentation indicates a patient has an opioid use disorder, but the specific pattern (e.g., abuse, dependence) is not specified, and a mood disorder is clearly identified as opioid-induced. This code is appropriate when the provider explicitly links the mood disturbance to opioid use.

• Ensure the medical record clearly states the mood disorder is "opioid-induced" or "substance-induced."
• Do not use if the mood disorder predates or is unrelated to opioid use; consider codes for primary mood disorders.
• If the pattern of opioid use is specified (e.g., abuse, dependence), use a more specific F11.xx code.
