UNSPSC 51372019: Levomethorphan

This classification denotes an opioid receptor agonist with the molecular formula C18H25NO, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 7ZZ22K9QE6, chemically known as 2h-10,4a-iminoethanophenanthrene, 1,3,4,9,10,10a-hexahydro-6-methoxy-11-methyl- but generally known as levomethorphan, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 3008. European Medicines Agency schedules Levomethorphan in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB08478MIG.

UNSPSC 51372019 Levomethorphan is a Commodity code that in state and local procurement reflects pharmaceutical procurement for community health and emergency response initiatives. The recent solicitation record shows that state and local government buyers under this code are purchasing naloxone and drug deactivation systems to support opioid-response and public-health programs, rather than the narrow pharmaceutical compound the code name suggests. Issuing bodies include county health departments and community health agencies managing emergency medical supplies and substance-abuse intervention programs. The work involves securing reliable supply chains for controlled or specialized pharmaceuticals and medical devices, managing quarterly delivery schedules, and ensuring vendor compliance with federal regulations when funding involves FEMA or similar oversight.

Seminole County, Florida represents the primary recent activity in the code, soliciting 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually through IFB60459723LAS, an IFB posted June 30, 2026, with response deadline July 26, 2023. The county requires quarterly deliveries to its Community Health Building in Sanford, Florida, with all shipping and delivery costs included in vendor pricing. Bidders must hold drug-free workplace certification, E-Verify compliance, and appropriate insurance coverages including workers' compensation and commercial general liability. The contract term runs two years with a one-year renewal option and includes a three-month probationary period. The source reflects limited recent activity under this code; no other state or local opportunities are documented, suggesting either low procurement frequency for this commodity class or potential misalignment between the UNSPSC code and the actual goods being bought.
