UNSPSC 51452603: Febantel for veterinary use

This classification denotes an antihelminthic agent with the molecular formula C20H22N4O6S, a preparation that US FDA regulates as an active ingredient or moiety under Unique Ingredient Identifier S75C401OS1, chemically known as n-(2-(2,3-bis-(methoxycarbonyl)-guanidino)-5-(phenylthio)-phenyl)-2-methoxyacetamide but more generally known as febantel, which bears US NIH Compound Identifier 9570638. European Medicines Agency schedules Febantel in its eXtended EudraVigilance Medicinal Product Dictionary or XEVMPD under Index SUB07518MIG.

UNSPSC 51452603 Febantel for veterinary use is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code show a substantial mismatch: the Illinois Department of Public Health's piggyback pharmaceutical warehouse order and Seminole County's procurement of naloxone and drug deactivation systems are human-use pharmaceuticals and public-health supplies, not veterinary febantel products. State and local governments do source veterinary pharmaceuticals, but the available record shows no active solicitations or awarded contracts for febantel specifically under this code during the current market window.

The geographic footprint reflected in the available records spans Illinois and Florida, though neither opportunity targets the febantel commodity itself. The Illinois Department of Public Health awarded a $2,999,999.11 contract over three years to Chartwell Rx LLC through the MMCAP Infuse cooperative purchasing consortium for human-use antibiotics (Doxycycline Hyclate and Ciprofloxacin Hydrochloride) via an IFB process that closed in September 2026. Seminole County, Florida issued an IFB (number IFB60459723LAS, due July 26, 2023) for 1,900 units of naloxone and 800 safe drug deactivation systems annually with quarterly deliveries to the Seminole County Community Health Building. Neither solicitation involves veterinary products or febantel procurement, suggesting the code may see limited state and local activity or that recent opportunities have been misclassified in the taxonomy.
