Many children resist taking medications which can make it very challenging for parents trying to administer these medicines. There are so many unique conditions affecting children that in many cases, it can be even more important to be able to customize medications for children than for adults. Problems can range from allergies or adverse reactions to inactive ingredients, or something as simple as the taste or texture of the medicine.
There can be times where the formulation size, such as a large tablet, can be daunting for even older children. A common issue that arises is when commercially available doses and strengths may be too strong or weak for a child’s age or size.
VivaRx specializes in turning prescription medication from something that both parents and kids dread into a product that agrees with the child’s tastes. We can create better tasting medications and compound alternative medication forms such as oral liquids, lollipops, topical gels or puddings. VivaRx pharmacists can also customize medications that are sugar-, dye-, soy- or even gluten-free.
