Acceptability of an orodispersible film compared to syrup in neonates and infants: A randomized controlled trial.

Objectives: Reliable pediatric pharmacotherapy in all age groups requires the availability of age-appropriate drug administration. Orodispersible films (ODF) are a promising pediatric oral dosage form. ODFs would meet relevant targets: one dosage form matching the full range of pediatric patients, a minimum of non-toxic excipients, a stable drug formulation easily to be produced.
