UNSPSC 51262401: Procaterol

This classification denotes an adrenergic beta-2 receptor agonist, bronchodilator agent, and sympathomimetic with the molecular formula C16H22N2O3, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier X7I3EMM5K0, chemically known as 8-hydroxy-5-(1-hydroxy-2-((1-methylethyl)amino)butyl)-2(1h)-quinolinone (r*,s*)-(+-)- but generally known as procaterol, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 4916. European Medicines Agency schedules Procaterol in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB10058MIG.

UNSPSC 51262401 Procaterol is a Commodity code that in state and local procurement represents pharmaceutical products and related health-system consumables—though recent activity shows a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement use. Seminole County, Florida has recently used this code to solicit naloxone and safe drug deactivation systems, a public health procurement that falls outside procaterol's pharmaceutical classification. State and local issuers soliciting under this code include county health departments and public health agencies pursuing community health initiatives, typically through competitive bidding processes. The procurements are characterized by modest annual volumes (hundreds to low thousands of units), quarterly delivery cycles, and standard compliance requirements including drug-free workplace certification and E-Verify verification.

Activity under this code is concentrated in Florida, where Seminole County's recent IFB 60459723LAS (posted June 30, 2026, response due July 26, 2026) sought 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford. The contract carries a two-year initial term with a one-year renewal option, fixed-fee pricing, and potential FEMA funding that introduces Clean Air Act and Federal Water Pollution Control Act compliance obligations. Bidders must absorb all shipping and delivery costs in their proposals and maintain workers' compensation, commercial general liability, and professional liability insurance. The source supports no other recent opportunities under this code, and the classification appears inconsistent with procaterol's actual pharmaceutical definition—suggesting either a data coding error or localized state-and-local use of UNSPSC outside its standard taxonomy intent.
