UNSPSC 51373476 Hydrocodone/potassium guaiacolsulfonate is a Commodity code that in practice captures state and local procurement of naloxone, safe drug deactivation systems, and generic multi-source pharmaceuticals distributed through authorized wholesalers to public health facilities and member agencies. State and local health departments, county community health systems, and cooperative purchasing alliances use this code to source pharmaceutical products—both branded and generic formulations—for emergency response, harm reduction, and routine clinical supply. The issuing bodies span county health departments (Seminole County, Florida) and multi-state cooperative purchasing organizations administering pharmaceutical frameworks across dozens of participating jurisdictions.

Recent activity reflects two distinct procurement streams: emergency-response pharmaceuticals and standing generic-drug contracts through cooperative vehicles. Seminole County posted IFB 60459723LAS on June 30, 2026, seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly delivery to its community health building in Sanford, Florida, response due July 26, 2023. The Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (MMCAP), administered by the Minnesota Department of Administration, issued RFP S1070000015802 on January 20, 2026, establishing multiple contracts for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products across participating state and local facilities including Oregon, with proposals due March 26, 2026 and product availability required by May 15, 2026; MMCAP requires cGMP and Drug Supply Chain Security Act compliance, mandates relationships with at least two of three authorized wholesalers (AmerisourceBergen, Cardinal Health, Morris & Dickson), and weights evaluation 75 percent on price competitiveness. Recent procurement concentrates in Florida and the Upper Midwest through cooperative purchasing frameworks; geographic spread beyond these anchor states is not evident in available records.
