UNSPSC 51282937: Sitafloxacin

This classification denotes a quinolone antibiotic with the molecular formula C19H18ClF2N3O3, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 3GJC60U4Q8, chemically known as 7-((7s)-amino-5-azaspiro(2,4)heptan-5-yl)-8-chloro-6-fluoro-1-((1r,2r)-cis-2-fluoro-1-cyclopropyl)-1,4-dihydro-4-oxoquinolone-3-carboxylic acid but generally known as sitafloxacin, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 73011.

UNSPSC 51282937 Sitafloxacin, a Commodity code, is drawn from recent state and local pharmaceutical procurement activity but shows limited direct relevance to the recent opportunities on record. The code nominally identifies a specific fluoroquinolone antibiotic; however, the posted contract opportunities tag different pharmaceutical products—ciprofloxacin hydrochloride, doxycycline hyclate, and naloxone—and do not reference sitafloxacin directly. State and local health agencies and counties issuing under this taxonomy segment do procure pharmaceuticals through cooperative purchasing vehicles, piggyback awards, and competitive bidding, but the recent solicitation record does not support active demand for sitafloxacin specifically. The Illinois Department of Public Health and Seminole County, Florida represent the issuing bodies in the current opportunity set, reflecting state health departments and county public health or emergency management functions.

Geographic activity is concentrated in Florida and Illinois based on recent postings. The Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a $2,999,999.11 three-year pharmaceutical piggyback contract through the MMCAP Infuse consortium to Chartwell Rx LLC on August 28, 2026, for supply of doxycycline hyclate 100mg tablets and ciprofloxacin hydrochloride 500mg tablets under an Invitation for Bid process. Seminole County, Florida posted an Invitation for Bid (IFB 60459723LAS) on June 30, 2026, seeking annual procurement of 1,900 units of Naloxone and 800 Safe Drug Deactivation Systems with quarterly delivery to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, due July 26, 2023. The code shows little relevant recent activity; business development professionals should verify whether sitafloxacin procurement appears in active state or county health formularies before allocating pursuit resources.
