"Candy Medication" by Bernard Fantus is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book focuses on an innovative approach to administering medication to children, utilizing sweet tablets or candies designed to make the intake of medicines more palatable. The work incorporates both historical perspectives and practical applications, aiming to highlight the benefits of this method in pediatric therapeutics. The opening portion introduces the concept of candy medications, tracing its
historical roots to ancient times when medicinal confections were common. Fantus shares his motivations for exploring this approach, noting the challenges children face when taking traditional liquid medicines. He argues that candy medication can greatly alleviate the fear and resistance typically associated with taking medicine among children, using delightful and attractive sweet tablets. The text outlines the necessity of creating a formulary to standardize this method, thereby enhancing its accessibility and effectiveness for practitioners and pharmacists alike.
