UNSPSC 51411504 Hexobendine, a Commodity code, represents pharmaceutical products supplied to state and local emergency medical services and healthcare agencies. State and local governments procure emergency medications and life-support drugs under this code for fire departments, emergency response units, and other public health responders. The code applies broadly to advanced life support pharmaceutical inventory, though recent activity shows heavy concentration in emergency medical services acquisition by municipal fire departments and emergency response agencies rather than broader healthcare distribution.

The City of Tampa's Purchasing Department solicited Advanced Life Support Medications via sealed bid (Bid No. 26P00188) due April 8, 2026, on behalf of Tampa Fire Rescue, seeking 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 for estimated contract value of $40,000.00. The bid required electronic submission through the OpenGov eProcurement Portal with firm pricing including all shipping and freight to Tampa, Florida, a one-year term with two optional one-year renewals, and medications warranted free from defects for 365 days with minimum nine-month shelf life at acceptance. The solicitation carried a Small Local Business Enterprise sheltered market designation with a 5 percent bid discount for SLBE participation not to exceed $10,000, and required Safety Data Sheets compliant with OSHA standards and WCAG 2.2 Level AA accessibility documentation. Available data reflects primarily Florida municipal-level procurement activity; geographic spread beyond the Tampa opportunity is not documented in recent postings.
