    Typical Clinical Scenarios

    • An adult presents to the emergency department with confusion, slurred speech, unstable gait, and a decreased level of consciousness after reportedly taking an excessive amount of prescription sleeping pills in a suicide attempt. Emergency staff stabilize airway and perform toxicology; findings are consistent with acute sedative/hypnotic intoxication requiring observation and possible detoxification. A diagnosis from this group is assigned to document the acute intoxication with depressed consciousness from sedative-hypnotic use. Typical codes: F13.120, F13.129
    • A middle-aged patient in primary care reports ongoing nightly use of benzodiazepines for several years with escalating doses, daytime sedation, and unsuccessful attempts to cut down; they meet criteria for a substance use disorder with physiological dependence but are currently not intoxicated or in withdrawal. The clinician documents a chronic sedative/anxiolytic use disorder to guide longitudinal management and care coordination. Typical codes: F13.20, F13.21
    • An older adult is admitted for new-onset seizures and delirium after abrupt discontinuation of long-term prescribed sedative-hypnotic medication; the hospital team treats withdrawal symptoms and monitors for complications. A diagnosis from this group is assigned to capture sedative/hypnotic withdrawal with severe neurological manifestations requiring inpatient care. Typical codes: F13.230, F13.231
