T39.8 — Poisoning by, adverse effect of and underdosing of other nonopioid analgesics and antipyretics, not elsewhere classified
Is T39.8 billable?
No — T39.8 is a non-billable header code. T39.8 groups more specific codes and cannot be submitted on a claim. A valid ICD-10-CM code must be reported at the highest level of specificity available in its branch. Select one of the 18 billable codes beneath T39.8.

Excludes1 — never code together — inherited from T36-T50
The conditions below can never be reported together with T39.8 on the same claim. An Excludes1 note means the two conditions cannot occur in the same patient, so reporting both is a coding error.
- toxic reaction to local anesthesia in pregnancy (O29.3-)
Code first — inherited from T36-T50
The underlying condition below must be sequenced before T39.8. T39.8 describes a manifestation and cannot be the principal or first-listed diagnosis.
Use additional code — inherited from Chapter 19
Report an additional code alongside T39.8 to fully describe the condition. T39.8 is sequenced first.
- code to identify any retained foreign body, if applicable (Z18.-)

Excludes2 — not included here — inherited from Chapter 19
The conditions below are not part of T39.8, but a patient may have both at the same time. When documentation supports it, T39.8 and the excluded code may both be reported.
