UNSPSC 51130000: Hematolic drugs

This classification denotes drugs that act on blood and blood-forming organs and those that affect the hemostatic system.

UNSPSC 51130000 Hematolic drugs is a Family code that encompasses pharmaceutical procurement for emergency medical services, long-term care facilities, mental health and substance-use treatment programs, and forensic laboratory operations. State and local governments procure medications for EMS drug-dosage calculation and protocol integration; prescription and pharmacy services for residential care and community mental health centers; basic and advanced life support pharmaceuticals and supplies for fire departments; naloxone distribution and safe drug deactivation systems for public health initiatives; and certified reference materials for forensic toxicology and seized-drug analysis. Recent opportunities show issuing bodies spanning county health departments, county commissioners, municipal fire departments, community mental health centers, and county forensic laboratories. The scope reflects both clinical pharmacy services (dispensing, inventory management, delivery, and quality assurance) and specialized pharmaceutical products (controlled substances, intramuscular injectable medications, reference standards for forensic use).
