UNSPSC 51393802: Isoproterenol/sodium chloride

This classification denotes a combination drug defined by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs in its (VA's) National Drug File (NDF), which falls under VA Drug Class AU100. This VA Drug Class (AU100) classifies this compound as belonging to the group SYMPATHOMIMETICS (ADRENERGICS).

UNSPSC 51393802 Isoproterenol/sodium chloride is a Commodity code that does not match the work actually being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement. The nominal scope—a specific pharmaceutical compound used in cardiac resuscitation—bears no relationship to the opportunities tagged with this code. Seminole County, Florida's IFB60459723LAS solicitation (posted June 30, 2026, response due July 26, 2023) seeks 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually for community health initiatives, with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission's RFI HHS0017013 (posted April 3, 2026) seeks vendor information on direct-to-manufacturer prescription programs and pharmacy benefit delivery models, exploring contract mechanisms outside traditional pharmacy benefit managers and group purchasing organizations. Neither solicitation involves isoproterenol or sodium chloride compounds, and neither addresses cardiac or emergency medical supply procurement in any form.

The code shows minimal recent relevant activity aligned with its nominal pharmaceutical scope. Issuing bodies posting under this code include a county health department and a state health and human services agency, but their actual procurement needs fall under broader pharmaceutical supply, naloxone distribution, and pharmacy benefit management categories that diverge sharply from the code's intended commodity definition. Geographic activity appears concentrated in Florida and Texas based on recent postings, though the mismatch between code definition and actual buying signals suggests this code may be misapplied or inactive for its intended use. Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC classification for pharmaceutical compound procurement or general pharmacy supply contracting rather than relying on this code's taxonomy placement.
