This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code T39.1X2A and a single ICD9 code, E950.0 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
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.
Underdosing is defined as taking less of a drug than is recommended by a provider or the manufacturer.
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. For example, contact with a Portuguese man o’ war or a jellyfish is located under Venom, venomous (bite) (sting) in the TDC.

Here’s how to tell the difference: Poisoning is the improper use of medication. Toxic effects are also coded using the TDC. 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.
