2924.29.62.10 - Acetaminophen

This HTS classification, 2924.29.62.10, specifically covers Acetaminophen, a widely recognized analgesic and antipyretic drug. Within the broader category of aromatic amides, this subheading is dedicated to pharmaceutical preparations used for pain relief and fever reduction. Acetaminophen's distinct chemical structure and therapeutic application are the primary criteria for its inclusion here.

Distinguishing this subheading from its siblings, 2924.29.62.20 (Acetophenetidin, also known as Phenacetin) and 2924.29.62.50 (Other), is crucial. While all fall under the umbrella of aromatic amides and are often associated with medicinal uses, Acetophenetidin is a distinct chemical compound with different pharmacological properties and regulatory status. The "Other" category (2924.29.62.50) serves as a residual classification for aromatic amides that are drugs but do not fit into the more specific subheadings for Acetaminophen or Acetophenetidin.

As a leaf node within the HTS, 2924.29.62.10 does not have further subcategories. Classification at this level is based on the specific identification of Acetaminophen as the sole product covered. Importers and exporters should ensure that the product being declared precisely matches the chemical and functional description of Acetaminophen to maintain accurate classification and compliance.
