About UNSPSC 51151516
UNSPSC 51151516 Tacrine is a Commodity code that reflects pharmaceutical procurement activity at state and local health agencies. Based on recent solicitations, state and local governments under this code purchase naloxone, drug deactivation systems, and related pharmaceutical products to support community health and substance-abuse intervention programs. The issuing bodies include county health departments and state health and human services commissions. Seminole County, Florida and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission represent recent active buyers, though the code shows limited recent activity overall — only two opportunities in the dataset.
Seminole County, Florida posted an IFB (IFB60459723LAS) on June 30, 2026, seeking 1,900 units of Naloxone and 800 Safe Drug Deactivation Systems annually for delivery to the Seminole County Community Health Building, with a response deadline of July 26, 2023. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued a Request for Information (RFI No. HHS0017013) on April 3, 2026, to gather vendor capabilities for a Therapeutic Pharmacy Initiative Direct-to-Manufacturer Prescriptions program, signaling early-stage procurement planning rather than immediate contract award. Geographic activity is concentrated in Florida and Texas. The code shows minimal recent volume, suggesting either narrow applicability within state and local procurement or significant consolidation of pharmaceutical contracting through established cooperative purchasing arrangements and pharmacy benefit managers.
