Last updated: August 2026 dataGlutethimide is a sedative-hypnotic compound classified as a controlled substance in the United States, making DEA import authorization a prerequisite alongside standard customs entry. The entire heading resolves to a single 10-digit tariff line, 2925120000, reflecting its narrow commercial scope. China is the dominant supplier, a concentration that importers of pharmaceutical-grade material should factor into supply continuity planning. Classification questions often arise around distinguishing this imide from structurally similar compounds in heading 2925.19.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes. Glutethimide is a Schedule II controlled substance under the Controlled Substances Act, so importers must hold a valid DEA import registration and comply with quota and reporting requirements before shipment.
The US schedule dedicates a single line, 2925120000, exclusively to glutethimide (INN), separating it from the broader imide derivatives in heading 2925.19. Correct classification depends on confirming the INN identity of the substance rather than relying solely on trade or brand names.
