Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

3003.31.00Higher: 10% vs Free

If in sterile dosage forms like eye drops

Medicaments consisting of hormones in measured doses classify under specific Chapter 30 provisions.

2835.25.00.00Higher: 35% vs Free

If primarily classified by phosphate ion

Inorganic phosphites/phosphates take precedence, but organic base dominates per Chapter 29 salt note.

2937.22.00Same rate: Free

If halogented derivative like fluorinated analogue

Halogenated steroid hormones have separate subheading from plain prednisolone.
