Penicillin V potassium is an oral penicillin antibiotic for streptococcal infections, packaged in 500mg scored tablets for retail therapeutic use.

Import Duty Rates by Country of Origin
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If sold in bulk for further compounding
Penicillins not in measured doses or retail forms are organic chemicals in Chapter 29, not finished medicaments.
If specifically named in higher subheadings
Certain penicillins like procaine penicillin have dedicated statistical suffixes; 'other' applies only to unspecified ones.
If prepared as injectables in vials
Wound-care specific medicaments shift to 3005, though penicillins typically remain in 3004 unless specified.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Include bioequivalence data if generic; CBP often requires proof of equivalence to US-listed drugs
