This diagnosis code signifies an intentional overdose or self-poisoning specifically involving diuretic medications such as carbonic-anhydrase inhibitors or benzothiadiazides. The patient has actively ingested these substances with the intent to harm themselves, and this is the initial presentation for treatment of this acute event.

Apply this code when a patient presents to an emergency department or inpatient setting following a deliberate ingestion of a diuretic medication with suicidal intent. This code is appropriate for the initial assessment and management of the acute poisoning event, such as gastric lavage, administration of antidotes, or supportive care.

• Ensure documentation clearly states "intentional self-harm" or "suicide attempt" in relation to the diuretic ingestion.
• Confirm the specific diuretic involved falls under carbonic-anhydrase inhibitors, benzothiadiazides, or other diuretics to differentiate from other drug classes.
• Pair with an external cause code (e.g., X61.0XXA for accidental poisoning by diuretics) if the intent was not self-harm.
