Why are Complex Medication Regimens Common in Pediatrics?
Pediatric patients often have chronic conditions such as asthma, epilepsy, or congenital heart disease that necessitate the use of multiple medications. Additionally, the dynamic nature of a child's growth and development can require frequent adjustments to dosing and medication types. This complexity is further compounded by the need for age-appropriate formulations, such as liquid suspensions or chewable tablets.
