The men's 200m individual medley SM5 event at the 2008 Summer Paralympics took place at the Beijing National Aquatics Center on 11 September. There were two heats; the swimmers with the eight fastest times advanced to the final (although apparently there were only eight entrants so no-one was eliminated).
