UNSPSC 51391701 Butopamine is a Commodity code that in state and local procurement covers pharmaceutical products and related health-system supplies. Recent opportunities show state and local governments purchasing naloxone, drug deactivation systems, and related pharmacy benefit program infrastructure under this code. Issuing bodies are primarily county health departments and state health and human services commissions, each procuring these products to support community health and emergency response initiatives. The mix reflects both direct product acquisition by operational health agencies and strategic procurement by state-level pharmacy benefit administrators seeking to optimize prescription fulfillment and cost management across multiple jurisdictions.

Seminole County, Florida posted an IFB (Solicitation IFB60459723LAS, due July 26, 2023) seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually, with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building and an initial two-year contract term plus one-year renewal option. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued an RFI (HHS0017013, posted April 3, 2026) to gather vendor capabilities for a Therapeutic Pharmacy Initiative Direct-to-Manufacturer Prescriptions program, designed to evaluate vendors' capacity for direct contracting with self-insured employer plans and state agencies outside traditional pharmacy benefit manager arrangements. Geographic activity centers on Florida and Texas; the code shows limited recent activity overall, with only two posted opportunities in the recent window.
