How To Use Oralyte Oral

Use this product as directed. Follow all directions on the product package. If you are uncertain about any of the information, consult the doctor or pharmacist.

Dry your hands before using this product. Place the strip inside the mouth, on the tongue or on the inside of the cheek. The strip will dissolve by itself. Allow the strip to fully dissolve before letting the child eat or drink.

Dosage is based on your child's medical condition and response to treatment. Do not use more than the recommended dose on the product package.

This product does not replace fluids lost due to diarrhea or vomiting. Therefore, your child should regularly drink water, juice, or other liquids while using this product.

Tell the doctor if your child's condition worsens, if it persists for more than 24 hours, or if your child also has severe stomach/abdominal pain, blood in the stool/vomit, a fever, or signs of dehydration (such as sunken eyes, dizziness, decreased urination, severe thirst, very dry mouth). If you think your child may have a serious medical problem, seek immediate medical attention.
