UNSPSC 51333417: Cariprazine

An atypical antipsychotic drug.

UNSPSC 51333417 Cariprazine is a Commodity code representing pharmaceutical products, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not directly track cariprazine acquisitions but instead reflects broader pharmaceutical and drug-management procurement across health agencies and cooperative purchasing groups. State and local governments soliciting under this code purchase generic pharmaceuticals, over-the-counter products, and emergency medical countermeasures through competitive bidding and cooperative purchasing agreements, with issuing bodies spanning state health departments, county health agencies, and multistate purchasing alliances. The scope includes manufacturer direct supply relationships, wholesale distribution arrangements, and emergency preparedness inventories—ranging from generic multi-source pharmaceuticals distributed through authorized wholesalers to naloxone and drug deactivation systems for community health programs.

Recent activity shows issuing bodies including the Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement (administering the multistate MMCAP cooperative), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, and Seminole County, Florida. The Minnesota MMCAP issued an RFP in January 2026 (due March 26, 2026) for generic pharmaceuticals and OTC products across participating state and local facilities in Minnesota and Oregon, requiring vendors to supply through three authorized wholesalers and certify cGMP and Drug Supply Chain Security Act compliance, with pricing weighted at 75 percent of evaluation and a 3 percent administrative fee on all purchases. Seminole County released an IFB (due July 26, 2023) for 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the County Community Health Building. Texas HHS issued an RFI in April 2026 to explore direct-to-manufacturer prescription programs outside traditional pharmacy benefit manager arrangements, seeking vendor experience with self-insured employers and negotiated net pricing models. Geographic activity concentrates in the upper Midwest (Minnesota, Oregon) and the Southeast (Florida, Texas), with procurement emphasis on manufacturer compliance, wholesale channel management, and cost transparency through cooperative purchasing vehicles.
