UNSPSC 51284904: Methenamine/potassium phosphate

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 AM550. This VA Drug Class (AM550) classifies this compound as belonging to the group METHENAMINE SALTS ANTIMICROBIALS.

UNSPSC 51284904 Methenamine/potassium phosphate is a Commodity code representing a single pharmaceutical product line, but the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it show little alignment with the code's nominal scope. The Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a $2,999,999.11 piggyback pharmaceutical contract through the MMCAP Infuse consortium to Chartwell Rx LLC in August 2026 for Doxycycline Hyclate 100mg and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride 500mg tablets—antibiotics unrelated to methenamine/potassium phosphate formulations. Seminole County, Florida solicited 1,900 units of Naloxone and 800 Safe Drug Deactivation Systems annually through an IFB posted in June 2026 for quarterly delivery to the Seminole County Community Health Building—again, products outside the nominal code definition. Both opportunities reflect state and local procurement of pharmaceutical and medical-supply products, but neither targets methenamine/potassium phosphate specifically.

The mismatch between the code's narrow pharmaceutical definition and the breadth of what is actually being solicited suggests either systematic miscoding in the source or that this particular commodity draws minimal standalone solicitation activity at the state and local level. Illinois Department of Public Health and Seminole County, Florida represent the issuing bodies in the available record, spanning a state health department and a county government respectively. No additional recent opportunities under this code appear in the source. Procurement professionals evaluating this code should verify whether state and local agencies are sourcing methenamine/potassium phosphate through broader pharmaceutical cooperative vehicles, bundled contracts, or hospital group purchasing rather than as discrete commodity solicitations.
