Suspensions are better than solutions because:
1. It can mask unpleasant taste of drugs because most drugs taste unpleasant in their soluble form but in their insoluble form (in suspensions) it doesn't taste as bad
2. Drugs with low solubility that can't be solubilized in solution form can be made into suspensions better
3. Rate of availability of drug from suspensions can be controlled better in comparison to solutions (normally this is important in injections - IM, IA or SC)
4. As most drugs are insoluble in suspensions, it can prolong action of drug by preventing rapid degradation of drug in presence of water
