Indian physicians at Mumbai's Tata Memorial Centre created Prevall, the country's first chemotherapy medication offered in syrup form. Children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia can be precisely dosed with 6-mercaptopurine oral suspension. Previously, liquid forms were not available in developing nations. Compared to tablets, Prevall more successfully addresses issues like palatability, tolerability, and flexibility in pediatric dosage.
