UNSPSC 51421505: Fluticasone propionate

This classification denotes a therapeutic glucocorticoid with the molecular formula C25H31F3O5S, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier O2GMZ0LF5W, chemically known as s-(fluoromethyl) 6alpha,9-difluoro-11beta,17-dihydroxy-16alpha-methyl-3-oxoandrosta-1,4-diene-17beta-carbothioate, 17-propionate but more generally known as fluticasone propionate, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 54580.

UNSPSC 51421505 Fluticasone propionate is a Commodity code for a specific pharmaceutical product, but the recent state and local contracting activity tagged under it shows no actual procurement of fluticasone propionate. The single recent opportunity on file—Seminole County, Florida's IFB 60459723LAS, posted June 30, 2026, with a response deadline of July 26, 2023—solicits naloxone and drug deactivation systems for community health initiatives, not fluticasone or any related corticosteroid or respiratory medication. This mismatch suggests either a data-entry error in the code assignment or that state and local procurement systems are applying this Commodity code inconsistently. The scope of work described in Seminole County's notice bears no relationship to the pharmaceutical category the code is meant to represent.

Without recent opportunities that actually procure fluticasone propionate or related products under this code, no meaningful geographic pattern, issuing-body concentration, or representative workload emerges. Fluticasone propionate—an inhaled corticosteroid used in asthma and allergy management—would typically appear in state health department, correctional-system, or school-district procurements, as well as in cooperative purchasing agreements through group purchasing organizations serving public health agencies. The code shows little or no relevant recent activity in the state and local market. Business development professionals should verify the correct UNSPSC commodity code for fluticasone or related pharmaceutical products before building a pursuit strategy around this classification.
