UNSPSC 51282108 Faropenem is a Commodity code representing a specific antibiotic pharmaceutical product. State and local health agencies source faropenem as part of broader pharmaceutical procurement programs, though the recent opportunities block shows limited direct faropenem activity; instead, documented procurements under related pharmaceutical codes show state and local health departments acquiring antibiotics and emergency medications through piggyback contracts with established pharmaceutical suppliers and cooperative purchasing consortiums like MMCAP. The Illinois Department of Public Health and Seminole County, Florida represent the typical issuing bodies — state health agencies and county public health departments acquiring medications for emergency preparedness, community health initiatives, and clinical distribution.

Recent activity is sparse and geographically limited. The Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a piggyback pharmaceutical warehouse contract to Chartwell Rx LLC on August 28, 2026, totaling $2.99 million over three years (including renewals) for Doxycycline Hyclate 100mg tablets and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride 500mg tablets through an Invitation for Bid process; Seminole County, Florida issued an IFB on June 30, 2026 (with a July 26 response deadline) for 1,900 units of Naloxone and 800 Safe Drug Deactivation Systems annually, with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford. Both procurements reflect state and local demand for pharmaceutical supplies and emergency-response medications. The code shows activity in Illinois and Florida; broader recent activity under faropenem specifically is not evident in the source data.
