Import Tips
• Require Certificate of Analysis (CoA) confirming purity >99% and identity via HPLC to meet FDA import standards for bulk APIs
• Ensure DEA compliance if any precursor status applies; chloramphenicol has veterinary restrictions in some markets
• Label as 'For Pharmaceutical Use Only - Not for Human Consumption' to avoid retail drug classification pitfalls
