UNSPSC 51281706: Ciclacillin or cyclacillin or gloximonam

This classification denotes a penicillin antibiotic with the molecular formula C15H23N3O4S, a preparation that US FDA recognizes as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 72ZJ154X86, chemically known as 6-(1-aminocyclohexanecarboxamido)-3,3-dimethyl-7-oxo-4-thia-1-azabicyclo(3.2.0)heptane-2-carboxylic acid but more generally known as ciclacillin, which bears U.S. National Institutes of Health Compound Identifier 19003. The European Medicines Agency schedules Ciclacillin in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB06232MIG.

UNSPSC 51281706 Ciclacillin or cyclacillin or gloximonam is a Commodity code that does not reflect the actual pharmaceutical and medical-supply procurements currently being issued by state and local buyers. Recent opportunities tagged under this code show a substantial mismatch between the code's nominal scope (a specific beta-lactam antibiotic) and what jurisdictions are actually soliciting — naloxone and drug deactivation systems, generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products through cooperative purchasing, direct-to-manufacturer prescription programs, and emergency medical supplies for fire-rescue divisions. The code appears to be applied as a catch-all category for pharmaceutical and medical-supply acquisitions rather than as a targeted antibiotic procurement mechanism, and the recent opportunities do not involve ciclacillin or cyclacillin procurement.

Activity spans state health agencies (Texas HHS Commission), state-cooperative purchasing organizations (Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance with participating state and local facilities in Minnesota and Oregon), counties (Seminole County, Florida), and municipalities (City of Tampa). Seminole County's IFB for naloxone and drug deactivation systems, posted June 30, 2026 with response due July 26, 2023, targets 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building. The City of Tampa's invitation to bid (26P00145) for medical and first aid supplies, posted March 25, 2026 with response due March 13, 2026, covers 169 line items for the Tampa Fire Department Rescue Division with an estimated contract value of $700,000.00 and includes a 5 percent bid discount for certified Small Local Business Enterprises. The Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance issued an RFP (S1070000015802) for generic multi-source pharmaceuticals and OTC products with response due March 26, 2026, distributing products through three authorized wholesalers and resulting in contract terms effective July 1, 2026. The Texas HHS Commission issued a Request for Information (RFI HHS0017013) posted April 3, 2026 to explore direct-to-manufacturer prescription programs outside traditional pharmacy benefit manager arrangements.
