A medicine designed for use in paediatric patients must consider the following aspects: patient population variability; the need for dose flexibility; route of administration; patient compliance; excipient tolerability. For example, the toxicity of excipients may differ in children compared to adults and children have different taste preferences. Globally, about 75% of drugs do not carry regulatory approval for use in children; worldwide, many medications prescribed for the treatment of paediatric diseases are used off-label, and less than 20% of package inserts have sufficient information for treating children. This book provides an update on both state-of-the-art methodology and operational challenges in paediatric formulation design and development. It aims at re-evaluating what is needed for more progress in the design and development of age-appropriate treatments for paediatric diseases, focusing on: formulation development; drug delivery design; efficacy, safety, and tolerability of drugs and excipients.Paediatric FormulationMedicinebicsscacceptableadministrationage-relatedanakinraautoinflammatory diseasebioavailabilitybiopharmaceuticscanakinumabchildchildrenchronic myeloid leukemiaconfocal microscopycyclodextrin inclusion complexdasatinibdesigndesign of experimentsdevelopmentdevicedosage formdrug deliveryDuchenne muscular dystrophyedible filmsexcipientflavor profileformulationformulation developmentgrindingimatinibinhaledinnovative biotechnologiesInterleukin-1intra nasalKawasaki diseaseliquid formulationmedication errormodified releaseneglected tropical diseasesneonatesNICUnilotinbNorvir®oralOrodispersible formulationpaediatricpaediatric agepaediatric dosage formspaediatric formulation developmentpalatability assessmentpalatableparenteralpediatricpediatric agepediatric drug deliverypediatricspenetrationpersonalized medicinephase solubility studiespolymorphponatinibpoorly soluble compoundpoorly water soluble drugproduct developmentpyrazinamideretinoblastomaritonavirsolubility enhancementspray congealingsystemic juvenile idiopathic arthritistaste-maskingtopicaltopotecantuberculosistumorspherestyrosine kinase inhibitorsMedicineDenora Nunzioedt1322374Lopalco AntonioedtDenora NunzioothLopalco AntonioothBOOK9910557304003321Paediatric Formulation: Design and Development3034926UNINA
