UNSPSC 51303614 Diphenhydramine/lidocaine/nystatin is a Commodity code covering pharmaceutical and topical medicinal products used in emergency medical response and first aid contexts. State and local governments procure these items as components of broader medical aid supply programs for fire departments, emergency services, and public safety agencies. The City of Tampa Fire Rescue Department's recent solicitation for medical aid supplies demonstrates the scope: the procurement includes not only the specific active ingredients named in the code but also complementary first aid items such as antiseptic sprays, hydrogen peroxide, aspirin, pain relievers, bandages, and emergency blankets, with the city budgeting $100,000 for the one-year initial award period and potential two-year renewal options. Issuing bodies soliciting under this code are typically municipal fire and emergency services departments, which treat medical supply procurement as a standing operational need. The evaluation criteria emphasize product quality, vendor responsibility, and financial condition, with all medications required to have a minimum nine-month expiration date from acceptance.

The City of Tampa's ITB 25-P-00157, posted April 24, 2026 with a bid opening of April 9, 2025, represents the recent activity under this code.
