About UNSPSC 51285312

UNSPSC 51285312 Nifurethazone, a Commodity code, nominally covers a specific pharmaceutical active ingredient, but recent state and local opportunities show minimal procurement activity directly under this code. The single concrete opportunity on record—Seminole County, Florida's June 2026 IFB for Naloxone and Safe Drug Deactivation Systems—involves naloxone (an opioid antagonist), which is a different pharmaceutical product and does not align with nifurethazone's scope. Illinois Department of Public Health's August 2026 piggyback award through MMCAP Infuse to Chartwell Rx LLC was for Doxycycline Hyclate and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride, antibiotic products unrelated to the code's nominal commodity. State and local procurement offices appear to tag pharmaceutical acquisitions broadly under higher-tier family or class codes rather than applying Commodity-level pharmaceutical codes consistently to specific active ingredients.

The code shows no clear issuing-body repeat pattern or geographic concentration in the recent record. Seminole County's Naloxone IFB, with a response date of July 26, 2026, called for 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually for quarterly delivery to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, Florida; Illinois Department of Public Health's pharmaceutical contract was awarded, not actively solicited. Business development professionals should treat this code as dormant for current pursuit unless reviewing higher-tier pharmaceutical codes (Family or Class level) where state and local demand for emergency-response pharmaceuticals and broad-spectrum antibiotics is more clearly documented.
