UNSPSC 51171714: Racecadotril

This classification denotes a protease inhibitor and antidiarrheal agent with the molecular formula C21H23NO4S, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 76K53XP4TO, chemically known as glycine, n-(2-((acetylthio)methyl)-1-oxo-3-phenylpropyl)-, phenylmethyl ester but generally known as racecadotril, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 107751. European Medicines Agency schedules Racecadotril in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB12435MIG.

UNSPSC 51171714 Racecadotril, a Commodity code, does not appear in state and local procurement records as a pharmaceutical ingredient. The single recent opportunity tagged with this code—Collin County Community Supervision and Corrections Department's RFP 2026-327 for offender specimen collection and drug testing services—concerns laboratory testing operations and toxicology screening infrastructure rather than the procurement of racecadotril itself. The mismatch suggests the code assignment may be erroneous or that the source database conflates pharmaceutical taxonomy with services that involve drug detection.

Collin County's RFP 2026-327, due July 23, 2026, solicits a two-year contract (with up to three optional one-year renewals) valued at approximately $600,000 to operate specimen collection sites in Plano and McKinney and conduct immunoassay screening with LC/MS/MS or GC/MS confirmation on approximately 25,031 annual tests. The vendor must hold SAMHSA, Texas DPS, or CAP lab certification and manage staffing, an Interactive Voice Response notification system, and result reporting. Pricing is per-test across three service models (screening only, confirmation after screening, and screening with automatic confirmation of positives), with price redetermination tied to medical Consumer Price Index increases not exceeding 3.0 percent annually. The county may award in whole or in part to multiple vendors. Without additional opportunities in the source record, activity under this Commodity code cannot be characterized across jurisdictions or regions.
