Import Tips

• Obtain FDA approval and Drug Master File (DMF) prior to import; ensure certificate of analysis confirms purity >99% and halogen content

• Provide detailed chemical specifications and CAS number (50-02-2) on commercial invoice to avoid misclassification as general steroids

• Verify compliance with USP/EP monographs; common pitfall is inadequate stability data for transport conditions
