Product Information

Diarrhoea, long term health conditions, and sweating when we exercise are just some of the reasons why you lose water and important body salts, making you feel tired, unwell and can lead to dehydration. The solution should be made up immediately before use. If refrigerated the solution may be stored for up to 24 hours, otherwise any solution remaining one hour after reconstitution should be discarded. Dioralyte should only be reconstitued with water and to the volume stated. A lesser or greater dilution may result in electrolyte imbalance. Drinking too much alcohol can cause dehydration, and is what causes many of the symptoms we associate with having a hangover. Alcohol is a diuretic which means it causes excessive urination resulting in loss of water and, consequently, dehydration.
