Examining prescribing in children and adolescents

Robertson, Deborah

Abstract

Last month's research roundup provided an overview of articles examining the complex issues encountered when prescribing medication during pregnancy (Robertson, 2023). This month, we will review a range of articles that focus on prescribing medication to a young population. The first article examines antipsychotic prescribing in children and adolescents. The second discusses the use of biologic treatments in managing asthma in children. Finally, we will review a paper that analyses trends in drugs prescribed to pediatric patients by GPs.
