UNSPSC 51284043: Tetracycline hydrochloride

This classification denotes a tetracycline antibiotic, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier P6R62377KV. European Medicines Agency schedules Tetracycline hydrochloride in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB04760MIG. Tetracycline hydrochloride generally arises in the molecular formula C22H24N2O8.CLH. The term 'tetracycline hydrochloride' is a U.S. Pharmacopeial Convention designation.

UNSPSC 51284043 Tetracycline hydrochloride is a Commodity code that classifies individual pharmaceutical products procured through state and local health agencies, though the recent opportunities in the system show limited direct purchasing under this specific code. State and local governments acquire tetracycline hydrochloride and related antibiotics primarily through piggyback contracts and cooperative purchasing vehicles that bundle multiple pharmaceutical products into warehouse supply agreements. The Illinois Department of Public Health, for example, uses MMCAP Infuse consortium piggyback contracts to procure related antibiotics such as Doxycycline Hyclate and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride on behalf of state health systems and emergency preparedness initiatives. Issuing bodies for pharmaceutical commodities in this family include state health departments, county health authorities, and special-purpose public health districts, typically working through established consortia or state pharmaceutical cooperative purchasing agreements rather than issuing individual product solicitations.

Recent activity under related pharmaceutical codes shows procurement concentrated in the Southeast and Midwest. The Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a $2,999,999.11 piggyback pharmaceutical contract through MMCAP Infuse to Chartwell Rx LLC on August 28, 2026 covering Doxycycline Hyclate 100mg and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride 500mg tablets with a 12-month initial term and two renewal options. Seminole County, Florida issued an IFB (Solicitation Number IFB60459723LAS) in June 2026 for naloxone and drug deactivation systems with quarterly deliveries, though that procurement falls outside the tetracycline commodity scope. Direct solicitations for tetracycline hydrochloride as a standalone item do not appear in recent state and local notices; instead, purchasing typically occurs through existing framework agreements and consortium vehicles that vendors access by pre-qualification rather than response to open RFP or IFB notices.
