UNSPSC 51293401 Cirazoline is a Commodity code that in practice covers pharmaceutical products supplied to state and local health agencies and community health programs. Recent solicitations show state and local governments purchasing naloxone and drug deactivation systems for public health initiatives, generic multi-source pharmaceuticals for distribution across government facilities, and exploring direct-to-manufacturer prescription fulfillment models through pharmacy benefit programs. Issuing bodies include county health departments, state health and human services commissions, and multistate cooperative purchasing alliances that aggregate demand across participating jurisdictions. The work involves product sourcing, compliance with cGMP and Drug Supply Chain Security Act standards, coordination with authorized pharmaceutical wholesalers, and quarterly or ongoing delivery to designated health facilities.

Activity spans Florida, Minnesota, Oregon, and Texas, with recent opportunities including Seminole County, Florida's IFB for 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually (IFB 60459723LAS, due July 26, 2023), the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance's RFP for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products (S1070000015802, due March 26, 2026), and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's RFI regarding a Therapeutic Pharmacy Initiative Direct-to-Manufacturer Prescriptions program (HHS0017013, posted April 3, 2026). Vendors in this space must maintain wholesaler relationships, comply with NDC coding requirements, carry appropriate insurance coverage including commercial general liability and professional liability coverage, and demonstrate pricing flexibility through multiple net pricing formats. Contracts typically run two years with optional renewals and often include administrative fees or performance penalties tied to compliance metrics.
