When to Use Dioralyte Blackcurrant Flavour Sachets?

Dioralyte Blackcurrant Flavour Sachets are effective ORT (oral rehydration therapy) treatments. They replace essential salts and body water that's lost due to:

• Acute Diarrhoea (Gastroenteritis): Diarrhoea is one of the leading causes of bodily fluid loss. The loss of excess water and electrolytes can cause dehydration, but Dioralyte replenishes your fluid and electrolyte balance.
• Vomiting: Vomiting can also lead to dehydration over time, but using Dioralyte can replace your fluids.
• Dioralyte can also be beneficial for people with excess sweating or conditions like the flu, where dehydration can occur.
