UNSPSC 51131642: Iloprost

This classification denotes a prostaglandin analogue and chemopreventive agent, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier JED5K35YGL. European Medicines Agency schedules Iloprost in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB08136MIG. Iloprost generally arises in the molecular formula C22H32O4.

UNSPSC 51131642 Iloprost is a Commodity code that names a single pharmaceutical product — a prostacyclin analog used in clinical settings — yet the most recent state and local procurement activity tagged under this code does not align with pharmaceutical procurement. Sourcewell, a Minnesota local government unit and service cooperative, posted RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, with a June 16, 2026 response deadline to procure law enforcement equipment on behalf of participating entities across multiple states. The solicitation encompasses Franklin County, Grant County, Grays Harbor County, Chelan County, and Yakima County in Washington, along with numerous other jurisdictions throughout the United States and Canada. This represents a cooperative purchasing vehicle structured to establish a contracting solution available to thousands of governmental agencies, higher education institutions, school districts, nonprofit organizations, tribal governments, and other public entities. The code shows a material mismatch between its nominal scope — a specific pharmaceutical product — and the actual procurement activity recorded under it, suggesting either a classification error in the state and local procurement system or a data artifact rather than genuine demand for iloprost procurement through cooperative purchasing.

The geographic and issuing-body diversity reflects Sourcewell's broad cooperative purchasing model rather than concentrated state and local procurement of the pharmaceutical product itself. No specific award value, budget range, set-aside designations, incumbent vendors, or technology requirements are disclosed in the available solicitation materials. Proposals must be submitted through the Sourcewell Procurement Portal at https://proportal.sourcewell-mn.gov, with vendor questions directed to Mari Vielma at rfp@sourcewell-mn.gov or 888-894-1930. Given the mismatch between the code's pharmaceutical scope and the law enforcement equipment solicitation, this code does not support reliable evidence of active state and local procurement demand for iloprost as a standalone commodity item.
