UNSPSC 51182800: Combination oxytocics

This classification denotes combination drugs and preparations that stimulate contraction of the myometrium, medically used to, for example, induce labor, or control postpartum or postabortion hemorrhage, or, in some cases, to induce abortion, which derive from the nonapeptide hormone oxytocin, and which therefore bear the term OXYTOCICS. Typical combination oxytocic constituents are dextrose and oxytocin.

UNSPSC 51182800 Combination oxytocics is a Class code, but the recent state and local solicitations under this designation do not reflect pharmaceutical procurement aligned with the code's nominal scope. Seminole County, Florida posted an IFB (IFB60459723LAS) on June 30, 2026, seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 Safe Drug Deactivation Systems annually—a public health supply purchase that diverges materially from combination oxytocic medications. The mismatch between the code assignment and the actual procurement suggests either a cataloging error in the source data or a jurisdictional practice of using this code for naloxone-related procurements outside its intended pharmaceutical taxonomy. State and local governments do not appear to be actively soliciting combination oxytocic products under this code in the recent opportunities available.

The single identifiable recent opportunity is the Seminole County IFB, which requires quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, Florida, with all shipping and delivery costs included in vendor proposals. Bidders must be E-Verify compliant, drug-free certified, and carry appropriate insurance coverage; the contract term is two years with a one-year renewal option, subject to a three-month probationary period. The procurement may be FEMA-funded, introducing federal compliance requirements. The lack of additional recent state and local opportunities under this code suggests minimal procurement activity for the product category it nominally describes, making it a low-activity code for business development purposes.
