UNSPSC 51293405 Deprodone is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure pharmaceutical products, specifically generic multi-source pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter medications, and emergency response drugs such as naloxone and drug deactivation systems. The recent opportunities show a mix of county health departments and state health agencies sourcing these products through competitive bidding and cooperative purchasing arrangements, with vendors required to meet FDA compliance, cGMP certification, Drug Supply Chain Security Act adherence, and established insurance and employment verification requirements.

Activity spans Florida, Minnesota, and Texas, with the most concrete recent opportunities showing Seminole County, Florida issuing an IFB for 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with a due date of July 26, 2023; the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP), administered by the Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement, issuing an RFP for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products with proposals due March 26, 2026 and contract effectiveness July 1, 2026; and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission posting a Request for Information on April 3, 2026 to gather market intelligence on direct-to-manufacturer prescription programs. The MMCAP procurement specifies authorized distribution through three wholesalers (AmerisourceBergen/Cencora, Cardinal Health, and Morris & Dickson) and weights evaluation at 75 percent on price competitiveness, while the Seminole County IFB requires quarterly deliveries with vendor-paid shipping and includes a three-month probationary termination clause. Cooperative purchasing vehicles like MMCAP serve multiple state and local jurisdictions, suggesting broader reach beyond individual procurements.
