UNSPSC 51101637: Benznidazole

This classification denotes an antiprotozoal agent with the molecular formula C12H12N4O3, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier YC42NRJ1ZD, chemically known as 1h-imidazole-1-acetamide, 2-nitro-n-(phenylmethyl)- (9ci) but generally known as benznidazole, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 31593. European Medicines Agency schedules Benznidazole in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB05753MIG.

UNSPSC 51101637 Benznidazole is a Commodity code, but recent state and local contract opportunities do not align with the code's nominal pharmaceutical scope. The most recent solicitation records under this code instead reflect procurement for naloxone and drug deactivation systems, medical and first aid supplies for emergency response, generic pharmaceuticals through cooperative purchasing, and direct-to-manufacturer pharmacy program development—none of which involve benznidazole specifically. State and local procurement activity tagged to this code does not demonstrate a coherent buying pattern around the named pharmaceutical, suggesting either a classification mismatch or minimal market activity for the product itself in state and local procurement channels.

The issuing bodies represent a mix of municipal fire departments, state health agencies, county public health operations, and cooperative purchasing consortia. Seminole County, Florida (IFB for naloxone and drug deactivation systems, due July 26, 2023); the City of Tampa Fire Department Rescue Division (IFB for medical and first aid supplies, estimated $700,000, due March 13, 2026); the Texas Health and Human Services Commission (RFI on direct-to-manufacturer prescriptions, response deadline April 3, 2026); and the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (RFP for generic pharmaceuticals and OTC products, due March 26, 2026) represent the recent activity. The code shows no clear concentration among repeat buyers or geographic region. Without recent opportunities that directly involve benznidazole procurement, this code presents limited visibility into actual state and local buying demand for the product.
