Give according to the child’s needs, age, and the severity of fluid loss. As a general guide, replace ongoing losses and encourage regular sipping. Always follow the on-pack age guidance, or ask a pharmacist/healthcare professional for personalised advice. |
| Timing | Start as soon as signs of dehydration appear (e.g., thirst, dry mouth, reduced urine, lethargy) and continue until normal hydration is restored. |
Tip: For younger children, offer chilled solution or use a straw/sippy cup to encourage intake. Do not mix with milk or juice.
