A method of forming a liquid formulation includes preparing a mixture and adding a second component to the mixture to form the liquid formulation. The mixture includes water, a film- forming polymer, a buffer, and a first component. The first component is an active ingredient including buprenorphine or a sweetener. The second component is the active ingredient comprising buprenorphine or the sweetener. Adding the second component is the last step in creating the liquid formulation.
