Abstract
Tens of thousands of children are sick with multidrug-resistant forms of tuberculosis (MDR-TB), but there are limited child-friendly delivery systems for second-line medications. This case study presents the development of a granular dosing spoon pediatric delivery system for para-aminosalicylic acid. This product is the first of its kind for MDR-TB and could serve as a model for the development of other urgently needed pediatric delivery systems for second-line anti-tuberculosis drugs.Entities:
