Reports and Intelligence: Pediatric drug development

Until pediatric legislation was introduced in the US (1997) and EU (2007) there has been little incentive for the pharma industry to evaluate drugs in children due to the low medical need of chronic illnesses and the high off-label use of generic drugs (Milne & Bruss, 2008).
