Import Tips

• Verify FDA approval and NDC numbering for prescription drugs; include Certificate of Pharmaceutical Product (CPP)

• Ensure accurate labeling of active ingredient (acyclovir) and dosage; common pitfall is mismatched batch documentation

• Check for stability data in import docs to avoid holds due to temperature-sensitive pharmaceuticals
