UNSPSC 51413303 Alprostadil alfadex is a Commodity code under which state and local governments procure emergency medical medications for use by fire rescue, emergency medical services, and hospital systems. The recent opportunity record shows activity in goods procurement for advanced life support medications, though the specific opportunity posted does not isolate alprostadil alfadex as a line item—instead, it bundles multiple injectable medications (labetalol, epinephrine, adenosine, and diltiazem) into a single solicitation. State and local issuing bodies using this code include municipal fire departments and rescue services. Vendors compete on firm pricing inclusive of freight, delivery within ten calendar days, and warranty of product integrity for a minimum of 365 days. Contracts typically run for one year with renewal options and reserved extension rights at the same terms. Set-aside and preference programs such as Small Local Business Enterprise designations with bid discounts apply to eligible vendors.

The City of Tampa's Purchasing Department posted the most recent relevant opportunity—an IFB (Invitation for Bid) for Advanced Life Support Medications to serve Tampa Fire Rescue in Hillsborough County, Florida, due April 8, 2026, with an estimated contract value of $40,000. The bid solicitation required electronic submission through the OpenGov eProcurement Portal and allowed SLBE participation with a 5 percent bid discount (not to exceed $10,000). Vendors must supply medications with nine months or more of shelf life remaining at acceptance, arrange pickup and replacement of expired stock, and comply with OSHA Hazard Communication Standards and WCAG 2.2 Level AA accessibility documentation requirements. The award was to be made to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder within 120 days of bid opening. Recent activity appears concentrated in Florida municipalities, though the single posted opportunity limits characterization of broader geographic distribution.
