Compounded Medicine for Children
Children pose many challenges when it comes to pediatric medication
They may resist taking a medication, dislike the taste or texture, have difficulty swallowing solid dosage forms, or are fearful of injections. These challenges, when not dealt with properly or completely could lead to the child’s recovery or healing being affected if doses are not taken as directed by their doctor.
