Medicines have benefits and some have risks. Always read the label and use only as directed. If symptoms persist or you have side effects see your health professional. Brands and generics both contain the same active ingredient(s) and are medically equivalent. Some brands are marketed under different names by the same manufacturer depending on the country of origin. Images are provided as a reference only, the received medicine may vary in packaging, color, pill shape, etc, from one batch to the next. For an item marked "generic" any quality brand may be sent, however you will always receive the active ingredients ordered in the strength(s) ordered.
Hydralyte Electrolyte Powder helps replace water and electrolytes lost due to vomiting, diarrhoea, heavy sweating, vigorous exercise and excess alcohol consumption. Signs of mild dehydration are sticky or dry mouth, increased thirst, decreased urine output, dark yellow urine, and lethargy. Dehydration due to vomiting or diarrhoea can be dangerous in babies and children under 5 years old and in elderly people. Hydralyte may be taken on the first signs of fluid loss due to vomiting and diarrhoea. Hydralyte may also be taken to help manage dehydration caused by heavy sweating, vigorous exercise, excess alcohol consumption, or due to a hot or dry environment. Suitable for use during pregnancy.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
- Fill cup with 200ml of fresh, cold drinking water. (For babies under 6 months, it is recommended that freshly boiled and cooled water be used.)
- Empty contents of one sachet in 200ml cup of water and stir until Hydralyte powder has dissolved.
- Sip slowly and frequently while symptoms persist.
- Discard unused solution after 2 hours or 24 hours if refrigerated.
- Avoid mixing Hydralyte powder with cordial, fruit juice, soft or sports drinks as these can interfere with the rehydration process.
