About UNSPSC 51281651
UNSPSC 51281651 Gentamicin sulfate is a Commodity code covering individual pharmaceutical products procured through state and local health agencies and county health departments. The recent opportunities block shows little activity directly aligned with gentamicin sulfate itself; instead, the two indexed solicitations involve related pharmaceutical procurement — one for antibiotic tablets (Doxycycline and Ciprofloxacin) and one for Naloxone and drug deactivation systems. State and local buyers use codes in this family to source injectable and oral antibiotics, antihistamines, anticoagulants, and other single-ingredient pharmaceutical products through piggyback contracts, cooperative purchasing vehicles, and direct competitive bids. The issuing bodies are typically state departments of public health and county health or emergency services departments, often procuring for warehouse stock, emergency preparedness, or community health programs.
The two recent opportunities span Florida and Illinois. The Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a piggyback contract to Chartwell Rx LLC through the MMCAP Infuse consortium in August 2026 for antibiotic tablets totaling $2,999,999.11 over 12 months with two renewal options. Seminole County, Florida posted an IFB in June 2026 for Naloxone and drug deactivation systems with quarterly deliveries, a two-year initial term, and one-year renewal option. Both procurements emphasize electronic bidding, vendor compliance with federal requirements (E-Verify, clean-air and water-pollution-control adherence where federally funded), and inclusion of shipping and delivery costs in pricing. Neither opportunity explicitly required set-aside utilization or domestic product preferences. The gentamicin sulfate code itself shows limited recent direct solicitation activity in the indexed block, suggesting either lower-volume or less-frequently-competed demand compared to broader antibiotic or emergency-pharmaceutical categories.
