Fentanyl Citrate
Fentanyl citrate is the citrate salt form of fentanyl, a synthetic opioid classified as a derivative under HTS 2934.92.00.00 due to its specific heterocyclic structure and chemical definition as a fentanyl derivative. It is primarily used in medical settings for anesthesia and pain management.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If classified primarily by its piperidine ring structure
Certain piperidine derivatives fall under other heterocyclic compounds in 2933 if not specifically identified as fentanyl derivatives.
If imported as finished dosage forms like injections
Formulations containing fentanyl in medicaments shift to Chapter 30 for pharmaceutical preparations rather than bulk chemicals.
