Meprobamate is a Schedule IV controlled substance under the US Controlled Substances Act, classified as a carbamate anxiolytic that was widely prescribed in the mid-20th century and remains in limited clinical use. Imports under 2924110000 require DEA import authorization in addition to standard FDA drug-substance entry requirements, making the compliance pathway more complex than for non-controlled pharmaceutical intermediates. Malaysia and China are the recorded suppliers, reflecting the concentration of generic active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) manufacturing in Asia.

Yes. Foreign manufacturers of pharmaceutical active ingredients destined for the US market must be registered with FDA under the Drug Supply Chain Security Act framework, and the facility is subject to FDA inspection.
