UNSPSC 51453100: Anthelmintic pyrimidines

Anthelmintic drugs made from a family of 6-membered heterocyclic compounds occurring in nature in a wide variety of forms.

UNSPSC 51453100 Anthelmintic pyrimidines is a Class code that nominally describes pharmaceutical compounds used to treat parasitic infections, yet recent state and local opportunities tagged to this code reflect a different procurement reality — state and local health agencies are actually buying broad-spectrum antimicrobial pharmaceuticals and naloxone-based emergency response systems through cooperative purchasing frameworks and direct solicitations. The issuing bodies are state health departments and county public-health authorities; the Illinois Department of Public Health and Seminole County, Florida appear in the recent record. Work under this code includes warehouse supply of finished pharmaceuticals (such as doxycycline and ciprofloxacin) through piggyback contracts on established cooperative purchasing vehicles (MMCAP Infuse), as well as community health procurement of naloxone and drug deactivation systems for emergency response and harm reduction. Contracts are structured with multi-year terms, renewal options, and fixed pricing; vendors must meet standard compliance requirements such as drug-free workplace certification and E-Verify eligibility.

Recent activity is limited and geographically sparse. The Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a $2,999,999.11 piggyback pharmaceutical warehouse contract to Chartwell Rx LLC through MMCAP Infuse on August 28, 2026, via Invitation for Bid (IFB 26482DPHPREPDB53392); the contract supplies Doxycycline Hyclate 100mg and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride 500mg tablets over a 12-month initial term with two renewal options. Seminole County, Florida solicited 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually through an IFB (IFB60459723LAS) with a response deadline of July 26, 2023, requiring quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (anthelmintic pyrimidines) and actual recent procurements (broad antimicrobials and emergency-response systems) suggests either miscoding or substantial drift in what state and local agencies are actually buying under this classification.
