Products classified under HTS 2937.22.00.00
Dexamethasone
Dexamethasone is a synthetic fluorinated glucocorticoid, a halogenated derivative of cortisol (an adrenal cortical hormone), used primarily for its potent anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. It falls under HTS 2937.22.00.00 as a halogenated derivative of adrenal cortical hormones per Chapter 29 notes defining such compounds by their chemical structure and hormonal function.
Triamcinolone Acetonide
Triamcinolone acetonide is a fluorinated derivative of adrenal cortical hormones (9α-fluoro-16α-hydroxyprednisolone acetonide) used primarily for its glucocorticoid hormonal activity in treating inflammation. Falls under HTS 2937.22.00.00 as a separate chemically defined halogenated steroidal hormone per Chapter 29 scope.
Clobetasol Propionate
Clobetasol propionate is a highly potent chlorinated and fluorinated derivative of prednisolone (adrenal cortical hormone origin) used topically as a super-potent glucocorticoid. Meets HTS 2937.22.00.00 criteria as a halogenated (Cl/F) steroidal hormone per Chapter 29 chemical definitions.
Fluorometholone
Fluorometholone is a 6α-methyl-9α-fluoro prednisolone derivative, halogenated adrenal cortical hormone analog used primarily in ophthalmic suspensions for anti-inflammatory effects. Classified under HTS 2937.22.00.00 as chemically defined halogenated steroidal hormone.
Desonide
Desonide is a fluorinated, low-potency corticosteroid (11β,16α,17,21-tetrahydroxypregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione 17-butyrate 21-acetate) derived from adrenal cortical hormones. Qualifies for HTS 2937.22.00.00 as halogenated derivative used primarily for topical hormonal therapy.
Mometasone Furoate
Mometasone furoate is a potent 21-chloro-11β,17-dihydroxy-16α-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione 17-(2-furoate) halogenated corticosteroid from adrenal cortical hormone series. HTS 2937.22.00.00 applies due to chlorine halogenation and primary hormonal use.
Betamethasone
Betamethasone is a potent fluorinated corticosteroid derived from adrenal cortical hormones, featuring fluorine halogenation at key positions for enhanced glucocorticoid activity. Classified under HTS 2937.22.00.00 as it meets Chapter 29 criteria for chemically defined halogenated steroidal hormones used primarily for anti-inflammatory hormonal effects.
Fluocinolone Acetonide
Fluocinolone acetonide is a halogenated (fluorinated) synthetic corticosteroid derived from adrenal cortical steroids, used primarily as a topical anti-inflammatory hormone. It qualifies for HTS 2937.22.00.00 under Chapter 29 as a chemically defined halogenated derivative with the characteristic steroid structure and hormonal function.
Fludrocortisone Acetate
Fludrocortisone acetate is a synthetic 9α-fluorinated mineralocorticoid derived from adrenal cortical hormones, used primarily for hormone replacement in Addison's disease. Classified in HTS 2937.22.00.00 as it features halogen substitution and qualifies as a steroidal hormone under Chapter 29 definitions.
