Admitting and Discharge Dx is "Hypoglycemia" with notes stating that, he may have had a side effect from Darbepoetin (given in ER) vs accidental ingestion of his wife's glyburide.
Proper way to code would be E16.0 Drug-induced hypoglycemia without coma, (per guidelines: Use additional code for adverse effect, if applicable, to identify drug).
So I will add T45.8X1A Poisoning by antianemic agents and T38.3X1A Poisoning by antidiabetic oral drugs???
Please help.
