UNSPSC 51433604 Perhexiline is a Commodity code representing pharmaceutical products procured by state and local health and emergency response organizations. The recent solicitation activity under this code shows that state and local governments buy emergency medical medications—specifically advanced life support drugs including vasopressors, inotropes, and antiarrhythmics—for use by fire rescue services and other emergency medical personnel. The City of Tampa's April 2026 solicitation for Advanced Life Support Medications illustrates the scope: sealed competitive bidding for specific medication line items (Labetalol, Epinephrine, Adenosine, and Diltiazem) in defined unit quantities, with strict expiration-date and delivery requirements, warranty obligations, and pickup-and-replacement provisions for expired stock. Issuing bodies under this code include municipal fire and rescue departments procuring through their city purchasing offices; the sourcing model is sealed competitive IFB with awards to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder and contract terms typically running one year with renewal options.

The source identifies a single recent opportunity: the City of Tampa (Hillsborough County, Florida) IFB 26P00188 for Advanced Life Support Medications, due April 8, 2026 (posted April 24, 2026—note the posted date is after the due date, indicating a correction or retroactive listing), with an estimated contract value of $40,000 and a one-year base term plus two one-year renewal options and up to three unilateral 30-day extensions. The solicitation includes a Small Local Business Enterprise sheltered-market set-aside with a 5 percent bid discount capped at $10,000 and full participation opportunities for eligible vendors. Geographic activity under this code is limited to Florida in the recent record. The scarcity of posted opportunities under this specific code may reflect how municipalities tag emergency medical supply contracts—they may route similar solicitations under broader pharmaceutical or emergency services codes rather than this narrower Commodity designation.
