UNSPSC 51182435: Teriparatide

This classification denotes a recombinant parathyroid hormone with the molecular formula C181H291N55O51S2, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 10T9CSU89I, chemically known as l-phenylalanine, l-seryl-l-valyl-l-seryl-l-alpha-glutamyl-l-isoleucyl-l-glutaminyl-l-leucyl-l-methionyl-l-histidyl-l-asparaginyl-l-leucylglycyl-l-lysyl-l-histidyl-l-leucyl-l-asparaginyl-l-seryl-l-methionyl-l-alpha-glutamyl-l-arginyl-l-valyl-l-alpha-glutamyl-l-tryptophyl-l-leucyl-l-arginyl-l-lysyl-l-lysyl-l-leucyl-l-glutaminyl-l-alpha-aspartyl-l-valyl-l-histidyl-l-asparaginyl- but generally known as teriparatide, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 16129682.

UNSPSC 51182435 Teriparatide is a Commodity code covering a recombinant human parathyroid hormone medication used to treat osteoporosis and bone loss conditions in state and local health systems, correctional facilities, and public hospitals. State and local issuing bodies procure teriparatide through pharmacy benefit managers, group purchasing organizations, and direct pharmaceutical contracting vehicles to supply inpatient and outpatient treatment programs. The medication is typically solicited as part of broader formulary management initiatives, institutional drug procurement contracts, or healthcare entity cooperative purchasing agreements rather than as a standalone line item.

The source contains no recent state and local contract opportunities tagged to this code. Without posted RFP, RFQ, IFB, or ITB notices, the geographic distribution, issuing-body concentration, and current procurement velocity under UNSPSC 51182435 cannot be characterized from available data. Firms pursuing teriparatide sales to state and local healthcare systems should track pharmacy and formulary procurement channels, state Medicaid managed-care contract cycles, and correctional healthcare system drug-supply RFPs, which often nest pharmaceutical commodities within larger health services or GPO purchasing arrangements rather than under discrete UNSPSC commodity codes.
