UNSPSC 51373441 Codeine/phenylephrine/promethazine is a Commodity code that in recent state and local practice spans a broader range of pharmaceutical and over-the-counter products than its narrow code name suggests. State and local buyers use this code to solicit generic multi-source pharmaceuticals, naloxone, drug deactivation systems, and related OTC products through competitive bidding and cooperative purchasing vehicles. Issuing bodies include county health departments, state procurement offices administering multistate cooperative purchasing alliances, and health agencies seeking to support community health and emergency response initiatives. The Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement and Seminole County, Florida represent the issuing-body mix, with cooperative purchasing vehicles like the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP) aggregating demand across multiple state and local participants.

Recent activity centers on Minnesota and Florida. The Minnesota Department of Administration issued an RFP through MMCAP on January 20, 2026 to establish multiple contracts for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products with responses due March 26, 2026; vendors must supply through three authorized wholesalers (AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation/Cencora, Cardinal Health, and Morris & Dickson) and comply with current Good Manufacturing Practices and the Drug Supply Chain Security Act, with contract effectiveness July 1, 2026. Seminole County, Florida posted IFB 60459723LAS on June 30, 2026 seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, Florida; the IFB closed July 26, 2023. Both solicitations require detailed product compliance documentation, E-Verify certification, workers' compensation and general liability insurance, and include performance and reporting penalties.
