UNSPSC 51363500: Combination hypnotics or sedatives

This classification denotes combination drugs and preparations that induce drowsiness or sleep or otherwise reduce psychological excitement or anxiety, hence the term sedatives or hypnotics. Typical combination sedative or hypnotic constituents are amobarbital, aprobarbital, barbital, and butabarbital.

UNSPSC 51363500 Combination hypnotics or sedatives is a Class code that in recent state and local procurement activity encompasses opioid-reversal agents and drug-disposal systems rather than traditional sedative pharmaceuticals. Seminole County, Florida solicited naloxone units and safe drug deactivation systems through competitive bidding, signaling that the code captures emergency-response and public-health pharmaceutical procurement at the county level. The scope includes products procured to support community health initiatives with requirements for quarterly delivery, vendor compliance with drug-free workplace and E-Verify standards, and insurance coverage including workers' compensation and professional liability. Issuing bodies under this code include county health departments and community health programs focused on opioid-crisis response and substance-abuse mitigation.

Seminole County, Florida represents the primary recent activity in the geographic spread tracked for this code. The county released IFB 60459723LAS on June 30, 2026, seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with a response deadline of July 26, 2023, and a two-year initial term plus one-year renewal option. The procurement requires electronic bid submission through the county's e-Procurement Portal with all delivery costs included in pricing, and allows a three-month probationary period permitting termination with or without cause. No explicit set-asides for disadvantaged enterprises were noted. The contract was potentially FEMA-funded, introducing federal compliance requirements including adherence to the Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act.
