Overview
This HTS category, HTS 3003.90.01.90, encompasses "Other" medicaments that consist of two or more constituents mixed together for therapeutic or prophylactic uses, but are not presented in measured doses or in forms or packings for retail sale. This broad category serves as a residual for medicaments falling under heading 3003 that do not fit into more specific subheadings within this classification. It generally includes bulk pharmaceutical preparations intended for further processing or repackaging before reaching the end consumer.
To distinguish this category from its sibling, "Anti-infective medicaments," it is important to note that HTS 3003.90.01.90 covers medicaments with therapeutic or prophylactic uses that are *not* specifically anti-infective in nature. While both fall under the umbrella of medicaments mixed for therapeutic purposes and not for retail sale, the sibling category is reserved for those with a primary function of combating infections. Therefore, medicaments for pain relief, anti-inflammatory purposes, or those treating cardiovascular conditions, for example, would likely be classified here if they meet the general criteria of heading 3003.
As HTS 3003.90.01.90 is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within this code relies on the absence of specific criteria that would place the product into a more defined subheading within heading 3003. The key determining factors are that the product is a mixture of two or more pharmaceutical substances intended for therapeutic or prophylactic use, not presented in measured doses or retail packaging, and not exclusively for anti-infective purposes.
