Oral Rehydration Salts we care Dosage/Direction for Use

Oral rehydration solutions are used for oral replacement of electrolytes and fluids in patients with dehydration particularly that associated with acute diarrhoea of various etiologies. The dosage of oral rehydration solutions should be tailored to the individual based on bodyweight and the stage and severity of the condition. The initial aim of treatment is to rehydrate the patient, and, subsequently, to maintain hydration by replacing any further loss due to continuing diarrhea and vomiting and normal losses from respiration, sweating, and urination. For adults, 200 to 400 ml of oral rehydration solution for every loose motion has been suggested. The dosage for children is 200 ml for every loose motion, and for infants is 1 to 1.5 times their usual feed volume. Normal feeding can continue after the initial fluid deficit has been corrected. Breast feeding should continue between administrations of oral rehydration solution.
