UNSPSC 51290000: Antidepressants

This classification denotes mood-stimulating drugs used primarily in the treatment of affective disorders and related conditions.

UNSPSC 51290000 Antidepressants is a Family code that in practice encompasses pharmaceutical procurement for emergency response and community health support, not antidepressant medications alone as the code name suggests. State and local governments use this code to acquire naloxone, safe drug deactivation systems, and related pharmaceutical products for opioid overdose intervention and substance-abuse harm reduction. Issuing bodies include county health departments and community health agencies managing public health initiatives. The scope reflects a shift in state and local pharmaceutical purchasing toward life-safety and emergency-response products that address overdose prevention and controlled substance management.

Recent activity is limited. Seminole County, Florida posted IFB 60459723LAS on June 30, 2026, seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to its Community Health Building in Sanford, Florida; the response deadline was July 26, 2026 at 2:00 p.m., and the contract carried a two-year initial term with a one-year renewal option on a fixed-fee basis. The procurement required E-Verify compliance, drug-free workplace certification, and standard commercial general liability and workers' compensation insurance. Geographic activity in the recent-opportunities block is limited to Florida; no other state or local jurisdictions show procurement under this code in the available record.
