UNSPSC 51162009: Aminophylline/phenobarbital

This classification denotes a combination drug defined by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in its (VA's) National Drug File (NDF), which falls under VA Drug Class RE109. This VA Drug Class (RE109) classifies this compound as belonging to the group ANTIASTHMA, OTHER.

UNSPSC 51162009 Aminophylline/phenobarbital is a Commodity code that shows minimal recent activity aligned with its nominal scope. The two state and local opportunities posted under this code in the past four months do not actually procure aminophylline or phenobarbital products. Seminole County, Florida issued IFB 60459723LAS in June 2026 to procure naloxone and drug deactivation systems—a public health response product fundamentally different from the code's pharmaceutical classification. Hall County, Georgia issued RFQ/P #47-010 in May 2026 seeking an on-site pharmacy services provider to manage formulary dispensing for county employees and retirees, which is a service delivery contract rather than a product procurement for the specific active pharmaceutical ingredient named in the code.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the actual work being bought suggests either miscoding by the issuing bodies or that the code is not in active use for meaningful state and local procurement activity. The Seminole County opportunity (due July 26, 2023, posted June 2026) and the Hall County opportunity (due June 4, 2026) represent different issuing-body types and geographies, but neither maps to aminophylline or phenobarbital procurement. Vendors should verify code assignments in RFPs and RFQs before committing resources, as this code does not currently signal a reliable procurement channel for products within the aminophylline/phenobarbital family.
