UNSPSC 51421600: Corticosteroid betamethasones

Corticosteroids made from doubly unsaturated pregnane derivatives substituted with three hydroxy groups anywhere within the ring structure or side chains.

UNSPSC 51421600 Corticosteroid betamethasones is a Class code that in recent state and local solicitations appears to cover opioid-antagonist medications and drug-disposal systems rather than corticosteroids as the code name suggests. Seminole County, Florida recently posted an IFB seeking 1,900 units of Naloxone and 800 Safe Drug Deactivation Systems annually, indicating that the code captures emergency-response pharmaceuticals and supporting equipment purchased by county health departments to support community health and harm-reduction initiatives. The procurement typically includes quarterly deliveries, vendor responsibility for shipping and delivery logistics, and standard compliance requirements such as drug-free workplace certification, E-Verify authorization, workers' compensation and general liability insurance, and in some cases federal oversight when FEMA funding is involved.

Seminole County, Florida is the only recent issuing body in the available opportunity record for this code. The July 2026 IFB (IFB60459723LAS) required electronic bid submission through the county's e-Procurement Portal with a response deadline of July 26, 2023 at 2:00 pm, and included a three-month probationary termination clause, an initial two-year contract term with a one-year renewal option, and fixed-fee pricing. The code shows limited recent activity in state and local procurement databases, with no opportunities recorded beyond the single Seminole County solicitation.
