Pediatric Compounding for Kids

Keeping Children's Specific Needs in Mind

Medication adherence can be a challenge for children and parents alike. Some prescribed medications are made for adults, not children, so the dosage may need to be adjusted for a child’s age and weight. Another common challenge is the finding the right formulation. For example, a child may have a hard time swallowing tablets and capsules that are too big for them, or may just dislike the way a medicine tastes. Our pediatric compounding pharmacy services can help with these challenges by offering:

Custom-tailored dosage based on child’s age and weight
Kid-approved flavors including vanilla, strawberry, banana, chocolate, and more
Medications without dyes, sweeteners, or allergens (gluten, lactose, wheat, etc.)
Different formulation options: Suspension, smaller capsules, lollipops, freezer pops, lozenges, and more

Research shows that many conditions may be exacerbated by certain dyes, preservatives and allergens. We understand the need for medications without these ingredients and can make medications to meet your child’s needs.
