UNSPSC 51391731: Norfenefrine

This classification denotes an alpha-adrenergic agonist with the molecular formula C8H11NO2, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier D2P3M6SRN5, chemically known as r,s-norphenylephrine but generally known as norfenefrine, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 4538. European Medicines Agency schedules Norfenefrine in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB09364MIG.

UNSPSC 51391731 Norfenefrine is a Commodity code that describes pharmaceutical products, though the recent state and local solicitations tagged under it show actual procurement focused on naloxone and drug deactivation systems rather than norfenefrine itself. State and local health departments and county public health agencies use this code to source emergency medical supplies and substance-abuse interventions, including naloxone (an opioid antagonist) and related drug disposal or deactivation systems for community health and emergency-response programs. The work involves supplying finished pharmaceutical products and associated medical equipment to public health facilities on a recurring basis, with vendors managing delivery logistics, inventory compliance, and regulatory certifications such as E-Verify and drug-free workplace status.

Seminole County, Florida posted an IFB (IFB60459723LAS) in June 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 bid deadline was July 26, 2023. The contract structure calls for a two-year initial term with optional one-year renewal, fixed-fee pricing, and potential FEMA funding with accompanying federal compliance requirements. Geographic activity is limited in the available record to Florida. The code shows sparse recent state and local activity; only one sourced opportunity appears in the dataset, suggesting either limited procurement velocity under this specific commodity classification or a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and what jurisdictions are actually buying.
