Additional Information for Oral Rehydration Salts
Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) are a type of medical product that falls under the supply class Drugs And Biologicals in the supply group Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies.
ORS is a mixture of electrolytes and glucose that is used to treat dehydration caused by conditions such as diarrhea, vomiting, or excessive sweating. It is typically available in the form of a powder that can be dissolved in water.
ORS works by replenishing the body with essential electrolytes, such as sodium, potassium, and chloride, which are lost during dehydration. It also provides glucose, which helps the body absorb these electrolytes more effectively.
ORS is commonly used in medical settings, as well as in households, especially in areas where access to clean drinking water is limited. It is considered a cost-effective and life-saving intervention for treating dehydration, particularly in children.
It is important to note that ORS should be used under the guidance of a healthcare professional, who can provide appropriate dosage instructions based on the individual's age, weight, and severity of dehydration.
