Import Tips
• Provide proof of measured dosing (e.g
• calibrated droppers) to confirm retail form classification
• Watch for misclassification as dental cement if containing additional fillers; pure anesthetic stays in 3004
• Include child-resistant packaging documentation as required for OTC oral anesthetics
