Orl Orange Ors Sachets

Orl Orange Ors Sachets contain Oral Rehydration Salt (ORS), a mixture of electrolytes and glucose used to replenish fluids and electrolytes lost during diarrhea, vomiting, or dehydration. It helps restore the body’s electrolyte balance and prevent complications associated with fluid loss.

Uses:

ORS Orange Sachets are prescribed for the management of dehydration caused by conditions such as diarrhea, vomiting, or excessive sweating.

ORS helps replace lost fluids and electrolytes, promoting rehydration and preventing dehydration-related complications.

The dosage of ORS Orange Sachets is determined based on the severity of dehydration and the patient’s age. The contents of one sachet are typically dissolved in a specified volume of clean drinking water, as indicated on the product label or by the healthcare provider. The solution should be consumed gradually, with frequent small sips, until rehydration is achieved. Patients should follow the recommended dosage regimen provided by their healthcare provider.

Side Effects:

ORS Orange Sachets are generally well-tolerated when used as directed. However, consuming large amounts of ORS solution may lead to electrolyte imbalances or hypernatremia (high sodium levels). In some cases, individuals may experience mild gastrointestinal symptoms such as bloating, nausea, or abdominal discomfort. Patients should seek medical attention if they experience severe or persistent side effects.
