UNSPSC 51432100: Antihypertensive guanidines

Antihypertensive drugs made from a family of iminourea derivatives.

UNSPSC 51432100 Antihypertensive guanidines is a Class code that encompasses pharmaceutical agents used in emergency medical services and hospital acute-care settings. State and local governments procure these medications primarily through their fire rescue departments, emergency medical services, and hospital systems for use in advanced life support protocols. The recent Tampa Fire Rescue solicitation illustrates the scope: the City of Tampa's Purchasing Department sought labetalol HCI, epinephrine, adenosine, and diltiazem vials for emergency response use. Fire rescue departments and municipal public-health agencies are the primary issuing bodies under this code, supplemented by county and regional hospital purchasing offices.

Activity under the code concentrates in Florida, with the City of Tampa's Purchasing Department posting its Advanced Life Support Medications IFB (Bid No. 26-P-00188) on April 24, 2026, with a response deadline of April 8, 2026 and an estimated contract value of $40,000.00. The Tampa solicitation required 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, with a one-year contract term and two optional one-year renewals. The City applied 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 Hazard Communication Standards and Accessibility Conformance Reports based on WCAG 2.2 Level AA standards. Award would be made to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder within 120 days of bid opening, with delivery required within ten calendar days of order receipt and a minimum nine-month expiration date from acceptance.
