UNSPSC 51372023: Butorphanol tartrate

This classification denotes an opioid analgesic with the molecular formula C21H29NO2.C4H6O6, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 2L7I72RUHN, chemically known as l-n-cyclobutylmethyl-3,14-dihydroxymorphinan tartrate salt but more generally known as butorphanol tartrate, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 5462346. European Medicines Agency schedules Butorphanol tartrate in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB00920MIG.

UNSPSC 51372023 Butorphanol tartrate is a Commodity code that maps poorly to recent state and local procurement activity. The single available recent opportunity—Seminole County, Florida's IFB 60459723LAS, posted June 30, 2026—solicits naloxone and safe drug deactivation systems rather than butorphanol tartrate. The county is seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually through competitive bidding, with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building. Vendors must submit bids electronically, include all shipping and delivery costs in their proposals, comply with drug-free workplace and E-Verify requirements, maintain workers' compensation and liability insurance, and execute a two-year initial contract with a one-year renewal option and a three-month probationary termination clause. The procurement may be funded through FEMA and carries associated federal compliance obligations under the Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act.

The code shows minimal recent state and local activity aligned with its nominal scope. The Seminole County solicitation, with a response deadline of July 26, 2023, represents the only traceable recent opportunity in the data. Geographic spread and issuing-body characterization cannot be reliably established from a single, tangentially related opportunity. Practitioners pursuing work under this code should note the mismatch between the commodity's pharmaceutical definition and the emergency-response and harm-reduction products state and local buyers are currently requesting.
