UNSPSC 51371802: Ketobemidone

This classification denotes an opioid receptor agonist with the molecular formula C15H21NO2, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier PQS1L514CF, chemically known as 1-propanone, 1-(4-(m-hydroxyphenyl)-1-methyl-4-piperidyl)- (8ci) but generally known as ketobemidone, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 10101. European Medicines Agency schedules Ketobemidone in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB08370MIG. The term KETOBEMIDONE is an International Non-Proprietary Name.

UNSPSC 51371802 Ketobemidone is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement appears to be miscoded or inactive for its nominal pharmaceutical scope. The single recent opportunity tagged to this code—Seminole County, Florida's IFB 60459723LAS—solicits naloxone and safe drug deactivation systems for community health delivery, which does not align with ketobemidone (an opioid analgesic). The mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the county's procurement system or that the code is not being used as intended for state and local purchasing. State and local health departments and county public health agencies would be the expected issuing bodies for opioid medications and related overdose-response equipment, but the search evidence does not support active procurement activity under this code's true scope.

Seminole County's July 2026 posting represents the only recent identifiable activity. That opportunity, with a response deadline of July 26, 2023, called for annual procurement of 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, Florida. The contract structure included a two-year initial term with one-year renewal option, E-Verify compliance, drug-free workplace certification, and potential FEMA funding with corresponding federal environmental compliance requirements. Without additional recent opportunities properly coded to ketobemidone in the state and local market, procurement professionals should verify whether this code is actively used for pharmaceutical procurement or whether opioid medications are typically solicited under different UNSPSC classifications by state health agencies and county purchasing offices.
