Overview
This HTS category, 3004.90.92.63, specifically covers medicaments containing furosemide and its salts, intended for therapeutic or prophylactic use. These products are presented in measured doses or in forms suitable for retail sale, such as tablets or injections. The defining characteristic of this classification is the presence of furosemide, a potent loop diuretic widely used to treat edema associated with conditions like congestive heart failure, liver cirrhosis, and renal disease.
This specific subheading is distinguished from its siblings by the active pharmaceutical ingredient. While 3004.90.92.66 covers medicaments containing hydrochlorothiazide, another diuretic, this category exclusively pertains to those formulated with furosemide. The sibling category 3004.90.92.68 encompasses other diuretics not otherwise specified within this group.
As a leaf node within the HTS classification system, 3004.90.92.63 has no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this subheading depends solely on the confirmed presence of furosemide (or its salts) as the active ingredient in a medicament intended for retail sale or in measured doses. The classification does not extend to furosemide as a bulk chemical or in preparations not for therapeutic or prophylactic use.
