UNSPSC 51383510: Ketorolac tromethamine

This classification denotes a cyclooxygenase inhibitor with the molecular formula C15H13NO3.C4H11NO3, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 4EVE5946BQ, chemically known as 1h-pyrrolizine-1-carboxylic acid, 5-benzoyl-2,3-dihydro, (+-)-, compound with 2-amino-2-(hydroxymethyl)-1,3-propanediol (1:1) but more generally known as ketorolac trometamol, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 84003.

UNSPSC 51383510 Ketorolac tromethamine is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it does not reflect pharmaceutical procurement — the single opportunity in the dataset is a Seminole County, Florida IFB for naloxone and drug deactivation systems, which fall outside the scope of this code's nominal product line. State and local governments do procure medications and pharmaceutical products through various channels, including direct purchase orders, standing inventory agreements, and cooperative purchasing vehicles through health departments, emergency services agencies, and public health districts, but the available record shows no active ketorolac tromethamine solicitations under this code at the state or local level.

The mismatch between the code's pharmaceutical scope and the naloxone-focused opportunity on record suggests either a data-entry error in how the opportunity was tagged or a broader pattern of state and local procurement offices applying pharmaceutical codes inconsistently across disparate product categories. Without additional opportunities in the dataset that reflect ketorolac tromethamine procurement, it is not possible to characterize issuing-body mix, geographic concentration, or representative solicitation patterns. A business development professional evaluating this code should verify directly with state health departments, county procurement offices, and emergency services agencies in target jurisdictions to establish whether ketorolac tromethamine procurement is actively bid under this code or whether opportunities are consolidated under higher-tier family or class codes or handled through cooperative purchasing agreements.
