UNSPSC 51382501: Prifelone

This classification denotes a nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug with the molecular formula C19H24O2S, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 0414BW860U, chemically known as 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl 2-thienyl ketone but generally known as prifelone, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 71751. European Medicines Agency schedules Prifelone in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB10038MIG.

UNSPSC 51382501 Prifelone, a Commodity code, does not align with the recent state and local procurement activity posted under this classification. The three most recent opportunities—Seminole County's procurement of naloxone and drug deactivation systems, the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's RFI on direct-to-manufacturer prescription programs, and the Minnesota Multistate Cooperative Purchasing Alliance's RFP for generic pharmaceuticals and OTC products—address naloxone distribution, pharmacy benefit management, and multi-source pharmaceutical supply respectively, none of which correspond to prifelone, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. State and local governments do not appear to be buying prifelone directly through public procurement channels at present, suggesting that this code either reflects minimal recent activity or has been misapplied to opportunities in the broader pharmaceutical and health commodities space.

The issuing bodies active under this code span county health departments (Seminole County, Florida), state health authorities (Texas Health and Human Services Commission), and multi-state cooperative purchasing vehicles (Minnesota Department of Administration's Office of State Procurement, serving participating states including Oregon). The geographic spread includes Florida, Texas, and Minnesota-Oregon cooperative activity. No opportunities specifically requesting prifelone procurement have been posted; the code's recent activity appears limited and disconnected from its nominal product scope, making it difficult to characterize active demand or represent procurement patterns with confidence.
