UNSPSC 51162306: Acetaminophen/caffeine/chlorpheniramine/phenylpropanolamine

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 RE599. This VA Drug Class (RE599) classifies this compound as belonging to the group COLD REMEDIES, OTHER.

The first component of this combination drug is an analgesic and antipyretic with the molecular formula C8H9NO2, a preparation that US FDA recognizes as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 362O9ITL9D, chemically known as n-(4-hydroxyphenyl)acetamide but more generally known as acetaminophen, which bears U.S. National Institutes of Health Compound Identifier 1983. Acetaminophen comes in many forms, including base, acetate, cysteine, cysteinylglycine, di-methyl derivative, glucuronide, glutathione, hemisuccinate, mercapturate, and sulfate.

UNSPSC 51162306 Acetaminophen/caffeine/chlorpheniramine/phenylpropanolamine, a Commodity code, shows minimal alignment between its nominal scope and recent state and local solicitations. The Washington State Department of Corrections issued RFQ RFQQK13020 on September 8, 2026 for parenteral products, services, and equipment — primarily intravenous solutions, parenteral nutrition (TPN and PPN) preparations, and controlled substances for incarcerated individuals — with bids due October 7, 2026. Seminole County, Florida posted IFB 60459723LAS on June 30, 2026 for naloxone and drug deactivation systems with an original deadline of July 26, 2023 (a date error appears in the source). Neither opportunity involves the specific combination drug product (acetaminophen, caffeine, chlorpheniramine, and phenylpropanolamine) the code nominally describes. The issuing bodies represent a state correctional department and a county health administration — distinctly different procurement contexts — each with a two-year initial contract term and options for renewal or extension.

The code shows limited recent activity directly relevant to its stated product scope. Washington State's DOC procurement spans eight correctional facilities across three regions (West, Central, and East) with DOC anticipating multiple awards, up to three bidders per region, and firm pricing for 150 days post-bid. Set-asides target small businesses (25%), minority-owned businesses (10%), women-owned businesses (6%), and veteran-owned businesses (5%) under Chapter 39.19 RCW, with subcontractor inclusion plans required. Seminole County's solicitation requires quarterly delivery to a single community health location and includes potential FEMA funding with associated federal compliance obligations. The code does not support a robust pipeline of opportunities under its stated pharmaceutical composition; pursue this code only if your firm manufactures or distributes the exact combination formulation and can service correctional or public-health procurement in Washington or Florida.
