About UNSPSC 51285605

UNSPSC 51285605 Lasalocid is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual scope of work being solicited under it in recent state and local procurement activity. The recent opportunities tagged with this code cover naloxone and drug deactivation systems, medical and first aid supplies for emergency response, generic pharmaceuticals and OTC products through cooperative purchasing, and direct-to-manufacturer prescription programs—none of which align with lasalocid, a livestock feed additive. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and the work actually being procured suggests either a data-entry error in how these opportunities were tagged or a fundamental misclassification in the underlying procurement system.

No meaningful activity exists under this code for vendors seeking to pursue state and local contracts for lasalocid itself. The four recent solicitations—Seminole County's naloxone and drug deactivation systems IFB (due July 26, 2023), the City of Tampa's medical and first aid supplies IFB (due March 13, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's RFI on direct-to-manufacturer prescriptions (due April 3, 2026), and the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance's RFP for generic pharmaceuticals and OTC products (due March 26, 2026)—represent pharmaceutical, medical supply, and emergency response procurement, not animal health products. Business development professionals should not rely on this code as a vehicle for pursuing state and local opportunities.
