UNSPSC 51392611: Phenylpropanolamine sulfate

This classification denotes an adrenergic agonist with the molecular formula 2C9H13NO.H2O4S, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier TQA3O9M79V. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule phenylpropanolamine sulfate under HS 29394900 and SITC 54144. As of Q4 2014, PHENYLPROPANOLAMINE SULFATE remains US FDA's Preferred Term for this commodity. SMILES: C[C@@H]([C@@H](C1CCCCC1)O)N.C[C@@H]([C@@H](C1CCCCC1)O)N.OS(=O)(=O)O.

UNSPSC 51392611 Phenylpropanolamine sulfate is a Commodity code that nominally covers a specific pharmaceutical compound, but the recent state and local opportunities recorded under it show minimal alignment with that narrow scope. The two posted opportunities involve naloxone procurement and a broader therapeutic pharmacy initiative focused on direct-to-manufacturer prescription fulfillment, neither of which directly corresponds to phenylpropanolamine sulfate. Seminole County, Florida issued an IFB in June 2026 for naloxone and drug deactivation systems, while the Texas Health and Human Services Commission posted a Request for Information in April 2026 regarding vendor capabilities for a direct-to-manufacturer prescription program. The issuing bodies are a county government and a state health agency, suggesting that when this code does see activity, it draws interest from state and local health and human services departments rather than a broad procurement base.

The code shows limited recent activity concentrated in two states: Florida and Texas. Seminole County's naloxone IFB (IFB60459723LAS, due July 26, 2023) sought 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford. The Texas HHS Commission's RFI (HHS0017013, posted April 3, 2026) functioned as a preliminary information-gathering mechanism to explore vendor capabilities for direct pharmaceutical contracting rather than a formal competitive solicitation. Neither opportunity directly addresses the phenylpropanolamine sulfate indicated by the UNSPSC code nomenclature, suggesting the code may be misapplied in state and local procurement systems or that the taxonomy does not accurately reflect the products state and local health agencies are actually purchasing under this number.
