UNSPSC 51282305 Erythromycin ethylcarbonate is a Commodity code that indexes pharmaceutical products, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show little direct alignment with erythromycin procurement. Instead, the tagged opportunities document purchases of unrelated pharmaceutical products—naloxone and drug deactivation systems on one hand, and doxycycline hyclate and ciprofloxacin hydrochloride on the other. State and local health departments and county public health agencies use this code family to source prescription medications and emergency pharmaceuticals through piggyback contracts and competitive bidding processes, typically via existing cooperative purchasing vehicles such as MMCAP Infuse or direct IFB notice.

Recent activity spans Florida and Illinois. The Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a piggyback pharmaceutical warehouse contract to Chartwell Rx LLC on August 28, 2026 for doxycycline hyclate 100mg tablets and ciprofloxacin hydrochloride 500mg tablets with a total value of $2,999,999.11 over twelve months plus two optional renewal years through the MMCAP Infuse Chartwell Rx LLC contract. Seminole County, Florida posted an IFB on June 30, 2026 (response deadline July 26, 2023—an apparent data-entry error in the source) seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford. The code shows minimal recent volume and appears to receive inconsistent tagging relative to its nominal scope; opportunities actually being solicited under related pharmaceutical UNSPSC categories should be cross-checked before pursing work under this specific code.
