Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If imported as minor narcotic derivative without specific INN listing
Other heterocyclic compounds with nitrogen not specifically named in 2933 move to later Chapter 29 heading per classification note.
If put up in dosage form for retail therapeutic use
Antisera, vaccines, and similar immunological products exclude Chapter 29; finished opioid meds classify under Chapter 30.
If manufactured as finished medicinal tablets or capsules
Medicaments in measured doses shift from bulk chemicals (Chapter 29) to finished pharmaceuticals (Chapter 30).
