T40.425 should not be used for reimbursement purposes as there are multiple codes below it that contain a greater level of detail.
Toxic effects are coded first using category codes T51 – T65. This block of codes has a guideline that states to use an additional code for associated manifestations. You still must locate these codes using the TDC. For example, rubbing alcohol is a harmful substance that is not meant to be ingested.
T63.014. –. –. The TDC is about more than poisoning, it also contains codes for reactions to drugs and other substances and underdosing . The TDC is also used to code other toxins, such as venom.

Toxic effects occur when a harmful substance is ingested or comes in contact with a person. An adverse effect occurs when a drug has been correctly prescribed and properly administered.
Adverse effect is an undesirable secondary effect of a drug properly prescribed and taken. Example: A patient is prescribed Z-Pak (azithromycin) for sinusitis. On the third day of treatment, the patient develops severe urticaria. Remember: We are now coding the undesirable secondary effect.
