Patient Centric Dosage Forms: Enhancing Acceptance and Adherence in Special Populations

The following session has been SOLD OUT. For any inquiries, please contact a member of staff on the day Kickstart your CPHI North America with a coffee and pastry, connect with your peers, and listen to exclusive content surrounding patient-centric development

The challenge of ensuring medication acceptance and adherence is particularly acute in special populations, such as pediatric and geriatric groups. These populations exhibit distinct pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic profiles due to their unique age-related physiological and biopharmaceutical characteristics. Consequently, the standard approaches to medication formulation often fall short of addressing their specific needs.

This presentation will explore the unique aspects of pediatric and geriatric populations, highlighting the limitations encountered in the design and development of dosage forms tailored for them, and how those challenges are overcome. A significant focus will be placed on the strategies that can be employed to overcome these challenges, with an emphasis on Adare’s platform technologies.

Through this discussion, we aim to shed light on the critical factors that must be considered in the development of effective, patient-friendly pharmaceutical formulations for pediatric and geriatric patients.
