Pediatrics

At Medimix Compound Pharmacy, we specialize in customized pediatric medications, recognizing the unique challenges children face when it comes to taking medicine. Unlike traditional pharmacies, we can alter the form, flavor, and dosage of medications to ensure that children receive treatments in a way that suits their preferences, dietary needs, and medical conditions. This approach is particularly valuable in pediatric care, as it enhances compliance and ensures that each child receives the care they need.

We work closely with pediatricians, caregivers, and families to create tailored medications that make it easier for children to take their medicines, improving therapeutic outcomes.

What Types of Pediatric Medications Can Be Compounded?

Our pediatric compounding services extend to a wide range of conditions, creating medications in forms that are both effective and easy for children to use. Some examples of compounded pediatric medications include:

• Gummy Squares or Bears: Delicious, chewable alternatives for children who struggle with traditional pills.

• Syrups: Custom-flavored liquid medications to mask the taste of unpleasant medications.

• Suppositories: For children who are unable to tolerate oral medications.

• Topical Creams and Gels: Non-invasive topical treatments for various conditions like eczema and acne.

• Freezer Pops: Frozen, child-friendly medication forms that are ideal for nausea and fever relief.

We also offer gluten-free and preservative-free medications for children with food sensitivities or allergies.

Common Conditions Treated with Pediatric Compounding

Our customized formulations can treat a wide variety of pediatric conditions, including but not limited to:

• Nausea and Vomiting: Tailored treatments to ease symptoms.

• Acne: Customized topical and oral medications to treat skin conditions.

• Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Autism: Specialized formulations for managing symptoms.

• Diaper Rash and Skin Conditions: Safe, effective topical creams and ointments.

• Eosinophilic Esophagitis: Personalized dosages to treat gastrointestinal disorders.

• Fungal Infections and Bacterial Infections: Customized antibiotics and antifungals in kid-friendly forms.

• Seizures and Anticonvulsants (AEDs): Adjusting doses to suit your child’s needs.

By tailoring medications to each child’s specific needs, we ensure that the treatment is as effective as possible while minimizing side effects and improving overall quality of life.

Why Pediatric Compounding Is Important

Children face unique challenges when it comes to taking medicine. They may resist medication due to taste, texture, or difficulty swallowing pills. Many medications also aren’t available in pediatric-friendly doses or forms, which can make treatment difficult.

At Medimix Compound Pharmacy, we can address these issues by creating medications that are:

• Flavored to improve palatability and make the medicine more appealing.

• In the Right Form for children who have difficulty swallowing pills (e.g., syrups, gummies, or suppositories).

• Customized for Allergies: Gluten-free, preservative-free, and free from other allergens to accommodate sensitivities.

• Topical: Non-invasive solutions like creams, gels, and transdermal patches for easy application.
