Import Tips
• Verify FDA registration and provide Drug Master File (DMF) for lorazepam API to ensure compliance with US import regulations
• Include certificate of analysis confirming lorazepam content and absence of contaminants; common pitfall is improper labeling of controlled substance schedule
• Use tamper-evident packaging for retail forms and declare as DEA Schedule IV narcotic to avoid customs delays
