UNSPSC 51411500: Vasodilator carboxylic acids

Vasodilator drugs made from organic compounds containing the carboxy group (-COOH).

UNSPSC 51411500 Vasodilator carboxylic acids is a Class code that captures pharmaceuticals used in emergency medical response, specifically vasodilator agents and related cardiotropic medications supplied to fire rescue and other emergency services. State and local governments procure these medications in measured quantities for advanced life support use, typically in sealed-bid formats with firm pricing that includes delivery, expiration guarantees (commonly nine months or longer from acceptance), and warranty obligations for defect-free materials. Issuing bodies are primarily municipal fire departments and emergency services divisions, procuring through city purchasing offices.

The Tampa Fire Rescue medication solicitation represents the recent activity under this code. The City of Tampa Purchasing Department posted an IFB (Bid No. 26-P-00188) on April 24, 2026, with a response deadline of April 8, 2026 — now past — requesting 370 units of Labetalol HCI 100mg vials, 1,810 units of Epinephrine 1:10,000 injections, 330 units of Adenosine 6mg vials, and 1,020 units of Diltiazem 25mg vials at an estimated contract value of $40,000.00. The contract includes a one-year base term with two additional optional one-year renewals plus up to three unilateral 30-day extensions. Tampa designated the procurement with a Small Local Business Enterprise sheltered market set-aside, offering a 5 percent bid discount for SLBE participation not to exceed $10,000. Vendors must submit Safety Data Sheets compliant with OSHA standards and accessibility documentation demonstrating WCAG 2.2 Level AA conformance and Section 508 compliance, with delivery required within ten calendar days of order and pickup or replacement of expired stock arranged before the nine-month mark.
