UNSPSC 51173008: Pramoxine/zinc oxide

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 RS201. This VA Drug Class (RS201) classifies this compound as belonging to the group HEMORRHOIDAL PREPARATIONS WITHOUT STEROID.

UNSPSC 51173008 Pramoxine/zinc oxide (Commodity) does not align with the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code. The two most recent solicitations—one for liquid aluminum sulfate (alum) used in wastewater treatment phosphorus removal, and another for general medical aid supplies including bandages, antiseptic sprays, and pain relievers—fall outside the nominal scope of a topical anesthetic and astringent wound-care product. State and local procurement activity under this code shows little relevant recent posting aligned to its intended classification.

The mismatch between code assignment and actual solicitation content suggests either data-entry error at the issuing body or misclassification in the upstream procurement notice system. The City of Austin's wastewater-treatment chemical purchase (IFB 2200 CSH1061, due August 25, 2026) and the City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department's first-aid supplies procurement (ITB 25-P-00157) represent active municipal demand but do not correspond to pramoxine/zinc oxide products. Business development professionals should verify UNSPSC coding with issuing bodies directly before pursuing opportunities posted under this code.
