UNSPSC 51392214: Tizanidine

This classification denotes an alpha-adrenergic agonist with the molecular formula C9H8ClN5S, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier 6AI06C00GW, chemically known as 2,1,3-benzothiadiazole, 5-chloro-4-(2-imidazolin-2-ylamino)- but generally known as tizanidine, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 5487. European Medicines Agency schedules Tizanidine in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB11129MIG.

UNSPSC 51392214 Tizanidine, a Commodity code, nominally designates a muscle relaxant pharmaceutical product, but recent state and local procurement activity under this code shows a significant mismatch: the single identifiable opportunity solicited naloxone and drug deactivation systems for opioid-crisis response, not tizanidine. State and local health departments and county public health systems appear to be the primary buyers when this code is applied, though the sparse activity record and the divergence between the code's nominal scope and actual solicitation content suggest the code may be misapplied in state and local procurement systems or that tizanidine itself generates minimal recent contract volume.

Seminole County, Florida issued the sole recent opportunity identifiable under this code—IFB60459723LAS, an Invitation for Bid posted June 30, 2026, with a response deadline of July 26, 2023 (note: the posted date and deadline are inconsistent in the source), seeking 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building in Sanford, Florida. The contract included a two-year initial term with a one-year renewal option, required electronic bid submission, E-Verify compliance, and drug-free workplace certification. No explicit set-aside designations or budget ranges were specified. The mismatch between the code's pharmaceutical designation and the actual naloxone procurement, combined with the absence of other recent opportunities, indicates limited current state and local procurement visibility under this code.
