Rosemont is a highly specialised pharmaceutical business developing and manufacturing oral liquid formulations of off-patent solid dose pharmaceutical products.

The majority of the oral liquid medicines which Rosemont produces are unique as most pharmaceutical manufacturers, including the brand originators, rarely develop liquid versions of their products.  Rosemont's oral liquid are prescribed to patients who are unable to take solid dose medicines due to swallowing difficulties. Most of these patients are either elderly or the very young.
