European Medicines Agency schedules Yohimbine in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB15744MIG.

UNSPSC 51263401 Yohimbine is a Commodity code that in practice captures pharmaceutical and health-support products procured by state and local health agencies. Recent solicitations under this code show state and local governments buying naloxone (opioid-reversal medication) and drug deactivation systems for community health programs, as well as exploring direct-to-manufacturer prescription fulfillment models to improve pharmacy benefit management and cost control. The issuing bodies include county health departments and state health and human services commissions, which are the primary drivers of activity under this code.

Activity appears concentrated in Florida and Texas, with Seminole County, Florida having posted an IFB on June 30, 2026 (due July 26, 2023) to procure 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, requiring electronic bid submission through the county's e-Procurement Portal and including E-Verify and drug-free workplace certification. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an RFI (HHS0017013) on April 3, 2026 to gather vendor capabilities on direct-to-manufacturer prescription programs serving self-insured health plans and state agencies outside traditional pharmacy benefit manager and group purchasing organization channels, seeking vendor experience with negotiated net pricing models and outcomes-based agreements. The Texas RFI represents preliminary market intelligence rather than a formal competitive solicitation, while the Seminole County procurement offers an immediate bid opportunity with a two-year initial term and one-year renewal option.
