What are the common formulations used in pediatrics?
Common pediatric formulations include liquid formulations (syrups and suspensions), chewable tablets, dispersible tablets, orodispersible tablets, and transdermal patches. Liquid formulations are typically preferred for infants and young children who may have difficulty swallowing solid forms. Chewable and orodispersible tablets are often suitable for older children who can safely handle tablets but may still have issues with swallowing traditional pills.
