2939.59.00.00Lower: Free vs 6.5%

If classified as caffeine derivative without primary drug intent

Xanthines like theophylline base may shift to heading 2939 for other heterocyclic drugs if not explicitly pharmaceutical.

3003.90.01Lower: Free vs 6.5%

If imported as formulated medicine rather than bulk API

Bulk powders become medicaments under Chapter 30 when mixed or prepared for therapeutic use.

2932.99Higher: 13.7% vs 6.5%

If for non-aromatic or unmodified versions

Heading 2932 covers other nitrogen heterocyclics if lacking pyrimidine ring or aromatic modification.
