3004.10.10.45 - Combination antibiotics

This HTS category, 3004.10.10.45, specifically covers combination antibiotics that contain penicillin G salts. These are pharmaceutical products designed for therapeutic or prophylactic uses, presented in measured doses or retail packaging. The "combination" aspect signifies that these products contain more than one active medicinal ingredient, with at least one of those ingredients being a penicillin G salt.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 3004.10.10.20 "Singles," is crucial. While both fall under the broader classification of containing penicillins or their derivatives, 3004.10.10.20 is reserved for single-ingredient antibiotic preparations. Therefore, 3004.10.10.45 is exclusively for products where penicillin G salts are combined with other therapeutic agents, distinguishing it from products solely relying on penicillin G salts as their sole active ingredient.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 3004.10.10.45. Classification at this level is determined by the presence of penicillin G salts in a multi-ingredient antibiotic formulation intended for direct therapeutic or prophylactic use and packaged for individual dosage or retail sale. Examples include fixed-dose combination antibiotics where penicillin G salts are present alongside other antibacterial agents.
