Pediatric formulary management

Pediatric formulary management involves selecting, organizing, and regularly reviewing the list of medicines appropriate for children in healthcare settings. It ensures that pediatric patients receive safe, effective, and cost-efficient medications. This process considers factors like dosing differences, safety profiles, and available alternatives. By managing the formulary carefully, healthcare providers can optimize treatment outcomes, reduce medication errors, and ensure consistent, evidence-based medication use tailored to children's unique needs.
