Substance intoxication
Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 235: malformed pattern (missing ']'). Substance intoxication is a type of substance use disorder[1] which is potentially maladaptive and impairing, but reversible,[2] and associated with recent use.[3]
If the symptoms are severe, the term "substance intoxication delirium" may be used.[4] Generic slang terms include: getting high or being stoned or blazed (all usually in reference to cannabis), with many more specific slang terms for each particular type of intoxicant. Alcohol intoxication is even graded in intensity, from buzzed, to tipsy, all the way up to hammered, smashed, wasted and a number of other similar terms.
Classification
Examples (and ICD-10 code) include:
- F10.0 alcohol intoxication
- F11.0 opioid intoxication
- F12.0 cannabinoid intoxication
- F13.0 sedative and hypnotic intoxication (see benzodiazepine overdose and barbiturate overdose)
- F14.0 cocaine intoxication
- F15.0 caffeine intoxication
- F16.0 hallucinogen intoxication (See for example Lysergic acid diethylamide effects)
- F17.0 tobacco intoxication
The term contact high is sometimes used to describe intoxication without direct administration, either by second-hand smoke as with cannabis, or by placebo in the presence of others who are high.
