UNSPSC 51282403: Azlocillin

This classification denotes a penicillin antibiotic with the molecular formula C20H23N5O6S, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier HUM6H389W0, chemically known as 4-thia-1-azabicyclo(3.2.0)heptane-2-carboxylic acid, 3,3-dimethyl-7-oxo-6-(((((2-oxo-1-imidazolidinyl)carbonyl)amino)phenylacetyl)amino)-, (2s-(2alpha,5alpha,6beta(s*)))- but generally known as azlocillin, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 37625. Azlocillin most often comes in base and sodium forms.

UNSPSC 51282403 Azlocillin (Commodity) covers antibiotic pharmaceutical products, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show minimal relevant activity. The two most recent records cite Doxycycline Hyclate and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride tablets (unrelated fluoroquinolone and tetracycline antibiotics, not azlocillin), and Naloxone with drug deactivation systems (opioid reversal agents and harm-reduction equipment, outside the scope of penicillin-class beta-lactams). The mismatch suggests either inconsistent coding by the issuing agencies or that azlocillin itself rarely appears in state and local solicitations.

When purchasing does occur under antibiotic codes, issuing bodies include state health departments and county health authorities seeking pharmaceutical warehouse supply through cooperative consortia and competitive bidding. The Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a $2,999,999.11 piggyback pharmaceutical contract through MMCAP Infuse to Chartwell Rx LLC in August 2026 using an Invitation for Bid process, and Seminole County, Florida posted an IFB in June 2026 for Naloxone and drug deactivation systems with quarterly delivery requirements. Geographic activity in recent records centers on Florida and Illinois. If azlocillin procurement occurs, it likely routes through state health department warehouse contracts, emergency medical supply agreements, or hospital cooperative purchasing vehicles rather than appearing as a standalone solicitation.
