Try this

SQL

DECLARE @cONSNAME VARCHAR(50), @ColName sysname, @kEYTYPE VARCHAR(10)
 DECLARE @SQLString NVARCHAR(500)
DECLARE @ParmDefinition NVARCHAR(500)

DECLARE objCONS CURSOR FOR 
	(select name, ColName = COL_NAME (OBJECT_ID('table_name'), colid)
	from sysindexes	idx
	inner join sysindexkeys ik on ik.id = idx.id and idx.indid = ik.indid
	where idx.id = 485576768)
OPEN objCONS
FETCH NEXT FROM objCONS INTO @cONSNAME, @ColName, @kEYTYPE
WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
BEGIN
	IF (@kEYTYPE = 'UNIQUE')
		BEGIN
		IF NOT EXISTS(SELECT * FROM SysObjects WHERE id = 485576768 AND xtype = 'UQ')		
			SET @SQLString = N'ALTER TABLE [''table_name''] WITH NOCHECK ADD CONSTRAINT [@cONSNAME] UNIQUE NONCLUSTERED
			(@ColName) ON [PRIMARY]'
                   
			SET @ParmDefinition = N'@ColName sysname'
			
			EXECUTE sp_executesql
			@SQLString,
			@ParmDefinition,
			@ColName = @ColName
			
		END
 
FETCH NEXT FROM objCONS INTO @cONSNAME, @ColName, @kEYTYPE
END
CLOSE objCONS
DEALLOCATE objCONS
