Oral Rehydration Salt helps in replacement of fluid and electrolyte loss due to:

• Acute diarrhea
• Vomiting
• Dehydration
• Other conditions causing fluid loss or reduced intake in patients of all age groups.

Each 10.25 g sachet contains:

• Sodium Chloride BP: 1.30 g
• Potassium Chloride BP: 0.75 g
• Trisodium Citrate Dihydrate BP: 1.45 g
• Glucose Anhydrous BP: 6.75 g

This is an oral rehydration salt preparation composed of anhydrous glucose, sodium chloride, potassium chloride, and sodium citrate (as dihydrate). It is a glucose-based single formulation ORS used for the treatment and prevention of dehydration caused by diarrhea of any origin, including cholera, in individuals of all age groups. It also helps prevent metabolic acidosis caused by electrolyte imbalance.

Daily dose should be equivalent to patients' fluid requirement for maintenance and replenishment of losses. During this therapy, mother should not stop breastfeeding to their child and normal food should be continued in case of adults.

Children 2 to 10 years: After each loose stool or vomiting 100-200 mL (1/2 to 1 glass) of prepared oral rehydration salt solution (Oral Rehydration Salt – Glucose Based).

Adult and children above 10 years: After each loose stool or vomiting 200-400 mL (1 to 2 glass) of prepared oral rehydration salt solution (Oral Rehydration Salt – Glucose Based).

• Disperse the full contents of the sachet in 500 mL (1/2 liter) of pure drinking water.
