Children are not small adults. Their bodies process medicines differently, and their doses, flavors and forms must be carefully designed. That is why pediatric medicines need extra attention at every stage, from formulation to packaging.
Deurali-Janta Pharmaceuticals, a trusted pediatrics medicine factory in Nepal based in Kathmandu, supports child health through its specialized division, Aarambha.
Aarambha: Maternal and Child Health Care
Aarambha was launched in Shrawan 2075 (July 2018) to meet the health needs of both mothers and children. Its aim is to ease suffering, restore health and improve quality of life through excellent products at affordable prices. By providing necessary medicines for maternal and child health, it supports families across the country.
What Makes Pediatric Medicines Different?
Good pediatric medicines focus on:
- Accurate dosing suited to a child’s age and weight
- Easy-to-give forms such as syrups, drops and suspensions
- Pleasant taste so children accept the medicine
- Safe ingredients and carefully controlled quality
- Clear labels and instructions for parents and caregivers
Manufacturing Under Strict Standards
Because children are more sensitive to errors, quality control is even more important. Deurali-Janta manufactures under GMP and WHO-GMP standards, with testing at each stage to make sure every batch is safe, consistent and correctly labeled.
Tips for Parents
Never guess a child’s dose. Use the measuring cap or dropper provided, follow the doctor’s instructions, store medicines out of children’s reach, and check the expiry date. If your child seems unwell, see a pediatrician instead of self-treating.
Why Local Manufacturing Helps
Producing pediatric medicines in Nepal improves availability, reduces dependence on imports and keeps prices more affordable, which is especially important for families with young children.
