Nov. 14, 2011 - PRLog -- Many drugs which are prescribed to children have not been adequately studied in the paediatric population. Pharmaceutical companies are now required to produce medicines specifically aimed at 0-17 year olds which has resulted in an increase in paediatric clinical trials. Trials in children are tightly regulated and have both operational and ethical challenges which need to be overcome.

Klaus Rose, Paediatric Drug Development Consultant, Klausrose Consulting
Lisa Moore-Ramdin, Senior Medical Advisor, Paediatric Vaccines, GlaxoSmithKline
