UNSPSC 51435002 Sodium chloride/verapamil is a Commodity code designating specific pharmaceutical formulations, though recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows a significant mismatch: the City of Tampa's April 2026 solicitation for Advanced Life Support Medications (IFB 26P00188) includes labetalol, epinephrine, adenosine, and diltiazem — none of which are sodium chloride or verapamil. The actual work being bought under this code appears to be emergency medical-response medications supplied to fire departments and emergency medical services. Issuing bodies soliciting under the code include municipal purchasing departments acting on behalf of first-responder agencies; in this case, the City of Tampa's Purchasing Department is procuring on behalf of Tampa Fire Rescue.

The most recent activity is concentrated in Florida. The City of Tampa IFB 26P00188 sought 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 response deadline of April 8, 2026 (already passed) and an estimated contract value of $40,000.00. Vendors were required to maintain nine-month minimum expiration dates from acceptance, deliver within ten calendar days, and warrant materials free from defects for 365 days. The contract included a Small Local Business Enterprise sheltered-market designation with a 5 percent bid discount (not to exceed $10,000) and required Safety Data Sheets compliant with OSHA Hazard Communication Standards and WCAG 2.2 Level AA accessibility documentation. The award was to be made to the lowest responsive, responsible bidder within 120 days of bid opening, with a one-year term and two optional one-year renewals plus up to three unilateral 30-day extensions.
