Poisoning by mixed antiepileptics, self-harm, subs

This code signifies a patient presenting for follow-up care related to an intentional overdose involving a combination of antiepileptic medications. The patient deliberately ingested these drugs with the intent to cause self-harm, and this encounter is for ongoing management or assessment after the initial acute treatment.

Apply this code when documenting subsequent visits for patients who have previously been treated for an intentional self-poisoning with mixed antiepileptics. This includes follow-up appointments for psychiatric evaluation, medication management adjustments, or monitoring for long-term effects after the initial emergency care.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "intentional self-harm" and "subsequent encounter."
• Verify that the overdose involved a mixture of antiepileptic drugs, not a single agent.
• Always sequence this code after any relevant codes for the patient's current mental health conditions or physical sequelae from the overdose.
