UNSPSC 51131737: Picotamide

This classification denotes an antiplatelet agent with the molecular formula C21H20N4O3, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 654G2VCI4Q, chemically known as 1,3-benzenedicarboxamide, n,n-bis(3-pyridinylmethyl)-4-methoxy- but generally known as picotamide, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 4814. European Medicines Agency schedules Picotamide in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB14868MIG.

World Health Organization schedules picotamide in its Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical (ATC) Classification. As of Q4 2014, PICOTAMIDE remains the US FDA Preferred Term for this commodity. Picotamide bears US NLM identifiers UMLS ID C0071043 and NCI Concept Code C73157. SMILES: O(C1C(CC(CC1)C(=O)NCC1CCCNC1)C(=O)NCC1CCCNC1)C..

UNSPSC 51131737 Picotamide is a Commodity code, though the recent state and local procurement activity posted under this code does not reflect purchases of the pharmaceutical substance itself. Instead, the sole recent opportunity shows a mismatch between the code assignment and the work being solicited: Sourcewell, the State of Minnesota's local government cooperative, issued RFP #061626 on May 12, 2026, to establish a contracting vehicle for Law Enforcement Equipment available to participating public entities across multiple states, with no indication that picotamide or pharmaceutical products are part of the scope. The code appears inactive for its nominal commodity. State and local procurement offices rarely solicit pharmaceuticals or active pharmaceutical ingredients as standalone line items; when they do, the transactions typically flow through healthcare purchasing cooperatives, pharmacy benefit managers, or state pharmacy boards rather than through open RFP cycles tagged to granular UNSPSC commodity codes. The mismatch between code 51131737's pharmaceutical definition and the law enforcement equipment solicitation suggests either a coding error in the opportunity record or dormancy in the picotamide code at the state and local level.

No recent state and local procurement activity supports pursuit under this code. Business development professionals should verify that any target opportunities are actually coded to 51131737 before expending effort on responses, and should monitor whether future activity emerges under higher-tier pharmaceutical or healthcare supply codes if picotamide sales to state and local entities are a strategic focus.
