Helps prevent and treat dehydration due to diarrhea, vomiting, excessive sweating, heat, or travel; supports electrolyte balance and hydration with added immunity nutrients.
How It Works
ORS provides glucose and electrolytes (sodium, potassium, chloride/citrate) that enhance water absorption from the intestine via sodium-glucose co-transport. This restores fluids and electrolytes lost during dehydration; added vitamins/minerals help meet increased nutritional needs during illness.
Directions for Use
Drink powder: dissolve the entire contents as directed on the pack in the specified quantity of clean water; stir well and consume in small frequent sips. Use freshly prepared solution; do not add sugar or mix with milk/soft drinks. Follow physician advice for children/elderly or if symptoms persist.
Seek medical advice if severe dehydration, persistent vomiting, blood in stool, high fever, or diarrhea lasting >24 hours in children or >48 hours in adults. Use with caution in kidney disease, heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, or conditions requiring restricted sodium/potassium intake. Do not use if solution is cloudy or incorrectly mixed; over-concentrated ORS can worsen diarrhea or cause electrolyte imbalance. Diabetics should use with caution due to glucose content.
