Products classified under HTS 2939.41.00.00
Pharmaceutical Grade Ephedrine HCl USP
USP-grade ephedrine hydrochloride meets United States Pharmacopeia standards for purity in prescription drugs like bronchodilators. Classified under HTS 2939.41.00.00 as the specific salt of ephedrine alkaloid from Ephedra, per Chapter 29 notes for pure organic compounds.
Ephedrine Hydrochloride
Ephedrine hydrochloride is the hydrochloride salt of the natural alkaloid ephedrine, extracted from Ephedra plants or synthesized. It is classified under HTS 2939.41.00.00 as a salt of the ephedra alkaloid ephedrine, fitting Chapter 29's scope for chemically defined organic compounds and their salts.
Ephedrine Sulfate
Ephedrine sulfate is a water-soluble salt of ephedrine used primarily in pharmaceutical bronchodilators and nasal decongestants. It qualifies for HTS 2939.41.00.00 as a salt of the ephedra alkaloid ephedrine, explicitly covered under this subheading for alkaloid salts.
Ephedrine Base (Free Base Form)
Pure ephedrine free base, the non-salt form of the alkaloid, often used as intermediate for salt production. While primarily salts are named, the alkaloid itself falls under HTS 2939.41.00.00 per hierarchy covering 'Ephedrine and its salts' including the parent compound.
Sterile Ephedrine Hydrochloride Injection Concentrate
Sterile solution of ephedrine HCl at 50mg/mL concentration for hospital IV use in hypotension treatment. Though dissolved, classified under HTS 2939.41.00.00 per Chapter 29 note (d) allowing water solutions of pure compounds if not rendered for specific non-general use.
Ephedrine Mandelate
Ephedrine mandelate salt combines ephedrine with mandelic acid, used in some urinary tract formulations. Falls under HTS 2939.41.00.00 as 'ephedrine and its salts' per chapter note (C)(1) classifying organic salts with the principal organic component.
Synthetic Ephedrine Hydrochloride
Laboratory-synthesized ephedrine HCl identical to natural extract, used in generic pharmaceuticals. HTS 2939.41.00.00 explicitly includes alkaloids 'reproduced by synthesis' and their salts, per subheading language.
