Import Tips
• Obtain FDA approval and Drug Establishment Registration prior to import; provide Certificate of Pharmaceutical Product (CPP)
• Maintain cold chain documentation (2-8°C) as norepinephrine is temperature-sensitive; include stability data
• Avoid misclassification as bulk API; verify measured doses and retail packing to prevent duty disputes
