This classification denotes an inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase inhibitor and immunosuppressant, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 9242ECW6R0. European Medicines Agency schedules Mycophenolate mofetil in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB03360MIG. Mycophenolate mofetil generally arises in the molecular formula C23H31NO7. Mycophenolate or mycophenolic acid bears US NLM identifiers UMLS ID C0883242 and NCI Concept Code C29272.

Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule this comodity under HS 29419000 and SITC 54139. SMILES: O1CCN(CC1)CCOC(=O)CC/C(=C/CC1C(OC)C(C2C(C1O)C(=O)OC2)C)C.

UNSPSC 51203203 Mycophenolate or mycophenolic acid (Commodity) spans pharmaceutical products that state and local health agencies acquire for public health programs and emergency preparedness. The recent opportunities posted under this code, however, do not align with the code's nominal scope — the Illinois Department of Public Health's MMCAP Infuse piggyback award supplied antibiotics (Doxycycline and Ciprofloxacin), and Seminole County's procurement targeted naloxone and drug deactivation systems, neither of which is mycophenolate or mycophenolic acid. The mismatch suggests either miscoding in the issuing bodies' procurement systems or a broader pharmaceutical-supply-category tagging convention that does not track the specific active ingredient. State and local buyers under this code are primarily public health departments and county health agencies managing inventory for clinical, emergency response, and disease-prevention programs through cooperative purchasing vehicles such as MMCAP Infuse and direct competitive bidding.

The geographic activity visible in recent opportunities centers on the Midwest and Southeast, with the Illinois Department of Public Health and Seminole County, Florida as recent transacting bodies. The Illinois opportunity (Solicitation 26482DPHPREPDB53392, completed IFB, August 28, 2026 award date) demonstrates use of piggyback contracts through established consortia, while the Seminole County solicitation (IFB 60459723LAS, posted June 30, 2026, response due July 26, 2023) reflects direct county procurement with quarterly delivery requirements and FEMA-potential funding. The mismatch between the code designation and the actual products being solicited suggests that this code tier may see limited or miscategorized recent activity — verify scope alignment with issuing agencies' procurement staff before pursuing opportunities tagged to this commodity code.
