Giving medication to a child isn’t always easy, especially when pills are difficult to swallow or liquid medications have an unpleasant taste.
Pediatric compounding can help by creating customized medications in strengths, flavors, and dosage forms designed around a child’s individual needs.
Depending on the prescription, compounding may allow for options such as:
• Flavored liquid suspensions
• Smoother textures for children with sensory sensitivities
• Customized strengths based on age or weight
• Alternative dosage forms when standard pills aren’t a good fit
• Formulations that take certain allergies or ingredient sensitivities into consideration
Our compounding pharmacists work closely with pediatric providers to help make medications easier for children to take and less stressful for families.
