Custom Medication For Kids

Giving Medicine to Kids can be a Challenge

We know that children can present several challenges when it comes to taking their medications. Some children may resist taking a liquid medicine due to the taste. Other children may have difficulty swallowing pills.

Also, many medications aren’t labeled for children. If a medication isn’t approved for use in infants and children, it typically isn’t available in a suitable pediatric dosage form.

A Custom Solution for Children’s Medication

Every child is unique and interesting. Because of this, we take a personalized approach. A spoonful of sugar may make your child’s medicine go down, but if it doesn’t our pharmacy can help.  Our pharmacy creates customized medication suspensions in many pleasant flavors such as:

Helping Put Smiles Back on Faces

Our tailor-made compounded formulations may offer you and your child real advantages over regular commercially-available products. These advantages may include:

  • Better Compliance: Your child is more likely to take his or her medicine.
  • Less Waste: Less resistance means fewer spills, and less lost medicine.
  • Improved Outcomes: It’s not a mystery, when kids take their medicine, it helps them get better!

Using a team approach, our pharmacists work directly with patients, caregivers, and pediatricians to come up with the best solution to pediatric medication challenges.

Because medicine only helps when a child actually takes it, it’s so important to come up with the best option for each individual child. Call and speak to one of our friendly pharmacists to hear more about the benefits of custom-made medications.
