Which of the following medication forms is a liquid that contains small particles of the drug that cannot be dissolved? Elixir Syrup Suspension Caplet

A suspension is the medication form you’re looking for! It’s essentially a mixture where small drug particles are suspended in a liquid but aren’t dissolved, much like when you shake up a snow globe and the glitter floats around. This means you often need to shake the bottle before using to get an even dose—so don't forget that little dance! On to the elixirs and syrups—while those forms are sweet as candy (literally, in the case of syrup), they contain the medication fully dissolved in liquid. Elixirs often include alcohol, making them taste great, but not so great for kids, while syrups focus on sweetness and are more often used for children or for those who prefer a sugary option.
