UNSPSC 51341601 Somantadine is a Commodity code that captures pharmaceutical products procured by state and local health agencies, though recent solicitation activity shows limited direct purchasing of somantadine itself. Instead, state and local governments are using this code classification for broader pharmaceutical stockpiling and emergency-preparedness procurement, including antibiotic tablets, naloxone, and drug deactivation systems. The issuing bodies include state departments of public health and county public health or emergency management offices. Purchases typically flow through cooperative purchasing vehicles such as MMCAP Infuse or direct competitive bid processes, with contracts structured as multi-year agreements with renewal options and quarterly or on-demand delivery schedules.

The most recent activity appears in Illinois and Florida. The Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a $2,999,999.11 three-year piggyback contract through MMCAP Infuse to Chartwell Rx LLC in August 2026 for Doxycycline Hyclate 100mg and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride 500mg tablets, procured via Invitation for Bid. Seminole County, Florida issued an IFB in June 2026 for annual purchases of 1,900 units of Naloxone and 800 Safe Drug Deactivation Systems with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building, requiring vendors to absorb shipping costs. Both procurements emphasize compliance with drug-free workplace certifications, E-Verify requirements, and insurance coverage standards, with no explicit set-aside designations noted.
