UNSPSC 51281633 Apramycin sulfate is a Commodity code that nominally covers a specific antibiotic pharmaceutical product, but recent state and local procurement activity tagged to this code does not reflect purchases of apramycin sulfate itself. Instead, the code appears in piggyback and competitive bidding notices for other pharmaceutical products — antimicrobial tablets, naloxone, and drug deactivation systems — suggesting either tagging inconsistency in state and local procurement databases or mission creep in how the code is applied. State and local health departments, counties, and community health agencies are the primary issuing bodies under this code. The recent opportunities show department of public health offices and county health authorities acquiring pharmaceuticals and medical supplies through both piggyback cooperative purchasing vehicles and traditional competitive bidding (IFB and ITB processes).

Activity concentrates in the Southeast and Midwest. The Illinois Department of Public Health executed a $2,999,999.11 piggyback pharmaceutical warehouse contract through the MMCAP Infuse consortium with Chartwell Rx LLC (awarded August 28, 2026) for doxycycline and ciprofloxacin tablets under a 12-month initial term with two optional renewal years. Seminole County, Florida released an IFB (due July 26, 2023) for annual procurement of 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, including a two-year initial term and optional one-year renewal. Neither opportunity specified set-aside or preference designations. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (apramycin sulfate, a veterinary antibiotic) and actual recent procurements (human-use pharmaceuticals and medical devices) suggests this code may not be the primary or reliable source for tracking apramycin sulfate demand in state and local markets.
