Poisoning by enzymes, accidental (unintentional), init

This code signifies an accidental overdose or adverse reaction to an enzyme preparation, such as digestive enzymes or thrombolytics, due to unintentional ingestion or administration. The patient is experiencing the acute effects of this poisoning.

This code is appropriate for documenting cases where a patient presents with symptoms of poisoning after inadvertently taking too much of an enzyme supplement or medication, or if an enzyme was administered incorrectly. It is used for the initial encounter for treatment of the poisoning.

• Ensure the poisoning is explicitly documented as accidental or unintentional.
• Confirm the substance involved is an enzyme, not another type of drug.
• Verify this is the initial encounter for the poisoning; subsequent care would use a different seventh character.
