UNSPSC 51162328 Ammonium chloride/diphenhydramine/menthol/sodium citrate is a Commodity code covering pharmaceutical and over-the-counter products sourced by state and local health and social-service agencies. Recent solicitations show demand for both brand-name therapeutics and generic multi-source pharmaceuticals distributed through state health departments, county health systems, and cooperative purchasing alliances. Issuing bodies include county health departments, state departments of administration, and multistate cooperative purchasing programs that aggregate purchasing across member jurisdictions and participating states.

Activity under this code is light and geographically dispersed. Seminole County, Florida solicited 1,900 units of naloxone and drug deactivation systems annually via IFB (Solicitation Number IFB60459723LAS, response due July 26, 2023), and the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP), administered by the Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement, issued an RFP for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products (Solicitation Number S1070000015802, response due March 26, 2026) with authorized wholesaler distribution across member states including Oregon. The code sees limited recent opportunity flow; the two opportunities on record represent distinct procurement models—direct county health purchase and statewide cooperative framework—with no indication of sustained pipeline activity in this specific commodity classification.
