About UNSPSC 51422354

UNSPSC 51422354 Methylprednisolone acetate is a Commodity code that in practice shows minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal pharmaceutical scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code — Seminole County, Florida's IFB60459723LAS — is actually soliciting Naloxone and Safe Drug Deactivation Systems, products unrelated to methylprednisolone acetate. This mismatch suggests either a tagging error in the procurement system or that the code is not currently in active use for its intended pharmaceutical purpose within state and local markets. State and local health departments, community health systems, and emergency services agencies would be the typical issuing bodies for methylprednisolone acetate procurement, but recent opportunity records do not reflect solicitations for this corticosteroid product under this code.

Seminole County, Florida posted the only recent opportunity tagged to this code on June 30, 2026, with a response deadline of July 26, 2023 — a date substantially in the past. The county's actual procurement targets naloxone and drug deactivation systems through quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building, with vendors required to include shipping and delivery costs and comply with drug-free workplace certification and E-Verify requirements. Given the absence of additional recent opportunities and the disconnect between the code's pharmaceutical designation and the work actually posted under it, this code presents no current market signal for methylprednisolone acetate procurement at the state and local level.
