UNSPSC 51391703: Albuterol or salbutamol

This classification denotes a bronchodilator and beta-adrenergic agonist with the molecular formula C13H21NO3, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier QF8SVZ843E, chemically known as 1,3-benzenedimethanol, alpha(sup 1)-(((1,1-dimethylethyl)amino)methyl)-4-hydroxy- but generally known as albuterol, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 2083. Albuterol comes in many forms, including adipate diethanolate, di-methylboronate, n-butylboronate, and sulfate.

UNSPSC 51391703 Albuterol or salbutamol is a Commodity code that nominally addresses respiratory medications, yet the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it shows a material mismatch: the only recent opportunity on record is Seminole County, Florida's IFB 60459723LAS, which solicits naloxone and drug deactivation systems—opioid-overdose reversal agents and harm-reduction equipment unrelated to albuterol or salbutamol inhalers. This mismatch suggests either miscoding by the issuing body or a data-integration error in the opportunity feed. The source provides no evidence of actual albuterol or salbutamol procurement under this code in the state and local market.

Seminole County's naloxone and deactivation-systems solicitation, posted June 30, 2026, with a response deadline of July 26, 2023, sought 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 drug deactivation systems annually through competitive bidding, with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, Florida. Vendors were required to submit bids electronically, include all shipping and delivery costs, provide unit pricing for each line item, comply with drug-free workplace and E-Verify requirements, and maintain workers' compensation, commercial general liability, and professional liability insurance. The contract offered a two-year initial term with a one-year renewal option and included a three-month probationary termination clause; potential FEMA funding introduced additional compliance requirements under the Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act. The procurement did not designate set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the solicitation content means this code shows no meaningful recent activity in genuine albuterol or salbutamol procurement within state and local government.
