Children and Infants

Many commercial products are available only in tablet and capsule form and therefore this can create difficulties when dosing children and infants.

At Life Compounding the health and wellbeing of your baby is our main priority. Our pharmacists will help your doctor, not only ensure the dosage is correct, but also that the preparation of your baby’s medication is the most effective way to ensure treatment success.

As an example, our flavoured suspensions can ensure the masking of sometimes bitter tasting medicines.

We also compound our own range of over the counter products specifically for your baby:

• Dermatitis/Eczema Cream
• Nappy Rash Cream
• Baby Insect Repellent
• Preservative Free Paracetamol liquid

We also commonly compound a range of prescription medicines for babies including:

• Omeprazole suspension – for acid reflux
• Sotalol suspension – for heart conditions
• Propranolol suspension – for heart conditions
• Aciclovir suspension – for viral infections
