So, will you be able to go into a pharmacy and buy this medication off the shelf? No, I guess it won't be with the other meds, you have to ask the pharmacy for it. And it's a lower dosage than other brands, so the pharmacist can help you with that. Curious on a direct cost comparison based on size/dosage, but I suspect that won't come out looknig too good for it.
Quote:
- The medication will be stored and sold from behind the pharmacy counter. Pharmacists will explain how the medication’s strength, dosing information and dosing device vary from the supply parents may be familiar with, and provide them with advice and information to determine the right dose for their child.
- Parents and caregivers are also encouraged to read the package instructions carefully to determine the correct amount to give to children.
