Other specified feeding or eating disorder (OSFED) is a subclinical DSM-5 category that, along with unspecified feeding or eating disorder (UFED), replaces the category formerly called eating disorder not otherwise specified (EDNOS) in the DSM-IV-TR. It captures feeding disorders and eating disorders of clinical severity that do not meet diagnostic criteria for anorexia nervosa (AN), bulimia nervosa (BN), binge eating disorder (BED), avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID), pica, or rumination disorder. OSFED includes five examples:

  • Atypical anorexia nervosa
  • Atypical bulimia nervosa of low frequency and/or limited duration
  • Binge eating disorder of low frequency and/or limited duration
  • Purging disorder
  • Night eating syndrome (NES)
