Résumé

Many children require medications in oral liquid dosage forms when their dose does not conform to a manufactured tablet or capsule size. Liquid medications are also needed for children who are unable to swallow solid dosage forms. This statement from the PPAG is in support of standardizing the concentrations of extemporaneous formulations of liquid medications for the benefits of safety, accuracy, and overall communication between providers.
