UNSPSC 51372001: Desomorphine

This classification denotes an opioid receptor agonist with the molecular formula C17H21NO2, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 7OP86J5E33, chemically known as morphinan-3-ol, 4,5-epoxy-17-methyl-, (5.alpha.)- but generally known as desomorphine, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 521115. European Medicines Agency schedules Desomorphine in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB07004MIG. The term DESOMORPHINE is an International Non-Proprietary Name.

UNSPSC 51372001 Desomorphine is a Commodity code that in practice captures state and local procurement of naloxone and drug deactivation systems for community health and overdose-response initiatives. The code's nominal name does not align with what state and local governments are actually buying under it; recent solicitations target harm-reduction and substance-abuse management supplies rather than desomorphine itself. Issuing bodies include county health departments and community health authorities managing overdose-prevention and drug-disposal programs. Vendors must meet standard compliance requirements including drug-free workplace certification, E-Verify enrollment, and appropriate insurance coverage (workers' compensation, commercial general liability, professional liability). Contracts typically include initial terms of two years with renewal options and run on fixed-fee pricing structures. Some procurements are potentially federally funded through mechanisms such as FEMA, introducing compliance obligations under environmental statutes including the Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act.

Seminole County, Florida posted the most recent identified opportunity under this code — an IFB (Invitation for Bid) numbered IFB60459723LAS on June 30, 2026, seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly delivery to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford. The response deadline was July 26, 2023, and vendors were required to submit bids electronically through the county's e-Procurement Portal with all shipping and delivery costs included. The single recent opportunity on file suggests limited current activity under this code, and the geographic footprint is narrow — only Florida appears in the available records. Business development professionals should verify whether the code remains actively used or has been superseded by alternative classifications within state and local procurement systems.
