Pediatric Compounding

  
   

When it comes to medicating your child, sometimes one size, dosage form, or flavor does not fit all. That's when it's time for you and your physician to call Atlantic Coast Compounding. When the need arises, Atlantic Coast Compounding can custom make your child's medication to meet his or her individual needs.

Many children have difficulty swallowing capsules or tablets. Pediatricians and compounding pharmacists can work together to find alternative dosage forms for children. These include lollipops, syrups, freezer pops, lozenges, gummis, even pacifiers and baby bottles for infants.

For infants, we even have a number of compounding for various conditions diaper rash formulas.
