Pediatric Patients are not simply “Small Adults.”

Off-label prescriptions: Many treatments for children are off-label, lacking pediatric-specific trials and formulations. Dosage and exposure: The difference in anatomy and physiological functions, like nasal development, gastrointestinal motility, and pH, impact drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion. Different responses: Age-related changes influence drug pharmacokinetics, requiring age-specific dosages. Pharmacovigilance: The lack of reliable data in the pediatric population leads to specific challenges, including limited safety data and issues with dosing. These aspects underscore the need for pediatric-specific research and development in pharmaceuticals.
