What is the dose limit for exempted pediatric (age 2-12) PSE solid dose formulations?

10mg/unit
12mg/unit
15mg/unit
20mg/unit

The correct answer is: 15mg/unit

Exempted pediatric solid dose formulations are those that are exempt from pediatric study requirements. The dose limit for such formulations is 15mg per unit, meaning a single tablet, capsule, or packet should not contain more than 15mg of the active ingredient. Option A, B, and D are incorrect because they are below the recommended limit of 15mg. It is important to follow this dose limit to ensure the safety and efficacy of the medication for pediatric patients aged 2-12 years old. Overdosing could lead to potential adverse effects or toxicity. Therefore, option C is the correct answer.
