Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If specified as 'of optical isomers'
Pure enantiomers of these amino-alcohols have dedicated provisions earlier in the subheading.
If imported primarily as phenolic alcohol without emphasized amino function
Chapter 29 prioritizes phenolic structure over amino-alcohol classification in some cases.
If for bulk medicaments containing the salt
Mixtures for medicinal use shift to Chapter 30 even if bulk.
