MEETING THE CHALLENGES OF PAEDIATRIC DOSING
Although paediatric drugs are traditionally administered in a liquid formulation, recent studies suggest that orally disintegrating mini-tablets may be a more accurate, convenient and less messy dosage form. Don Barbieri explores this method and reviews two case studies looking at whether quality standards can be met and the importance of taste in paediatric formulations.
