Paediatric

Children And Medicine: Every Parent's Challenge. Children can present a variety of challenges when it comes to taking their medications. Some may resist taking a liquid medicine due its taste, due to allergies or they may have difficulty swallowing pills.

Some children have a fear of injections, which leads to additional challenges to parents. Many medicines have not been approved for use in infants and children and typically do not have suitable pediatric dosage forms. As a result, many medications aren’t labeled for children.and parents are forced to crush medicine and try to find a means of dosing their child. At Kingswood Compounding we specialise in paediatric dosage formulations into many pleasantly flavored forms, these include:

• Suspensions
• Solutions
• Lollipops
• Gummy Shapes
• Lozenges

At Kingswood Compounding Pharmacy our alternative compounded formulations benefit you in numerous ways. These can include:

• Improve Compliance — Your child is more likely to take their medicine.
• Reduce Wastage — Less resistance means fewer spills, and less lost medicine.
