3004.10.10 - Containing penicillin G salts

This HTS category, 3004.10.10, specifically addresses medicaments that contain penicillin G salts. These are pharmaceutical products, intended for therapeutic or prophylactic uses, and are presented in measured doses or in forms suitable for retail sale. The defining characteristic for classification under this code is the presence of penicillin G salts as an active ingredient within the medicament.

This subcategory is distinguished from its sibling, 3004.10.50, by the explicit inclusion of penicillin G salts. The sibling category, "Other," would encompass medicaments containing penicillins or their derivatives that do not fall under the specific criteria of containing penicillin G salts, or perhaps other types of antibiotics covered by the broader heading but not specifically enumerated here.

The subcategories under 3004.10.10 further refine the classification based on the intended use. 3004.10.10.10 is reserved for medicaments containing penicillin G salts that are specifically formulated for veterinary applications. The subsequent subcategory, indicated by the colon, would cover medicaments containing penicillin G salts for human use, allowing for a more granular tracking of pharmaceutical trade flows.
