Extemporaneous Formulations for Pediatric, Geriatric and Special Needs Patients

Since its first publication, Extemporaneous Formulations has been the go-to guide for treating patients who require medications that are not commercially available in appropriate forms or dosages for pediatric, geriatric, or special needs.

Now even more comprehensive, the fourth edition provides the same evidence-based formulation in easy-to-follow ""recipes"" for 312 formulations, 129 of which are new.

Each ""recipe"" includes:

• Ingredients
• Preparation details and instructions
• Storage conditions
• Special instructions
• Alternatives
• Expiration dates
• References
• Documented stability data

An invaluable resource for practitioners, Extemporaneous Formulations also includes a list of standardized concentrations for compounded oral liquids from ASHP's Standardize 4 Safety initiative.

Compiled by experts in the field, it's the best guidance you can get for the care you want to give.
