Surely a slow release mechanism can be designed, whereby we give our children a single pill each morning with breakfast. This would then gradually release the dose over the course of the day in a more consistent way than current dosing methods. The medicine would be the exact same as that which we now use, and compliance would obviously improve in some cases.

This pill could be designed to be cut easily, and higher doses could mean taking two pills together, at the same time, in private, at home as part of an easily remembered daily scedule.

Why not?
