UNSPSC 41181890: Alder allergenic extract

In this classification, this entry connotes an extract made of Alder used in an Immunological Allergenic test.

UNSPSC 41181890 Alder allergenic extract is a Commodity code that in practice encompasses a much broader range of pharmaceutical products and pharmacy services than its name suggests. State and local governments soliciting under this code are actually procuring emergency medical supplies (naloxone, drug deactivation systems), primary care and specialty medications (through pharmacy dispensing services and pharmacy benefit management), basic and advanced life support pharmaceuticals and supplies for fire departments and EMS agencies, and cooperative purchasing access to generic pharmaceuticals and over-the-counter products. The issuing bodies span county health departments, state health agencies, city fire and police departments, county boards of commissioners, and state procurement offices acting on behalf of multiple jurisdictions through cooperative purchasing vehicles. DeKalb Public Health in Georgia has posted two separate RFQs for primary care medication dispensing services to support its Ryan White program (posted May 6, 2026 and reposted July 15, 2026 with response due July 27, 2026); the City of Tucson Fire Department issued an RFP for BLS and ALS pharmaceuticals, supplies, and vending machines (IFB 260217, response due June 24, 2026); and Seminole County, Florida procured naloxone and drug deactivation systems through competitive bidding (IFB 60459723LAS, response due July 26, 2023—note: this opportunity's posted date of June 30, 2026 conflicts with its due date of July 26, 2023, suggesting a data error in the source).

Recent activity centers in Georgia (DeKalb Public Health), Florida (Seminole County), Arizona (City of Tucson), and Illinois (State of Illinois CPO-GS cooperative purchasing extension), with broader multistate reach through cooperative purchasing mechanisms. The State of Illinois CPO-GS extended its indefinite-quantity master agreement with Emergent Devices Inc. for Narcan 4mg nasal spray through December 31, 2026 (change order due June 30, 2026), with current spending at approximately $1.1 million per month statewide and an estimated value of $9 million for the six-month extension. The Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP) issued an RFP for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products distributed across state and local facilities including Oregon, with proposals due March 26, 2026 and contract effectiveness July 1, 2026. Texas HHS issued a Request for Information on April 3, 2026 to explore direct-to-manufacturer prescription programs outside traditional pharmacy benefit manager arrangements. Pinellas County, Florida, procured comprehensive Pharmacy Benefit Manager services for 3,200 county employees through RFP 26-0408 (proposals due March 31, 2026, with services commencing January 1, 2027).
