UNSPSC 51422001 Cosyntropin or tetracosactide is a Commodity code that in state and local procurement activity maps to emergency medical and public health supply procurement rather than the specific pharmaceutical agent named in the code. Seminole County, Florida's recent IFB for Naloxone and Safe Drug Deactivation Systems illustrates the actual scope of work: counties and municipalities are procuring emergency response pharmaceuticals and harm-reduction equipment to support community health and public safety initiatives. State and local governments acquire these supplies through competitive bidding processes with structured delivery schedules, typically quarterly or as specified, and vendor selection based on unit pricing and compliance with workplace, insurance, and federal regulatory requirements. Issuing bodies under this code include county health departments and municipal community health divisions, which manage procurement of controlled or restricted pharmaceuticals and specialized medical systems through IFB and similar competitive vehicles.

The code shows recent activity primarily in Florida, specifically Seminole County. Seminole County's IFB 60459723LAS, posted June 30, 2026 with response deadline July 26, 2023, sought 1,900 units of Naloxone and 800 Safe Drug Deactivation Systems annually for delivery to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford. The procurement required electronic submission through the county's e-Procurement Portal, E-Verify compliance, drug-free workplace certification, and standard commercial insurance including workers' compensation and general liability. The contract structure included an initial two-year term with optional one-year renewal and a three-month probationary period allowing termination at will. Potential FEMA funding introduced additional federal compliance layers such as the Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act adherence. Vendors bore all shipping and delivery costs, which were incorporated into fixed-fee unit pricing submitted in the bid response.
