Asking For Someone else, Son, Male, 1?5 Years old, Karachi

My son doesn’t drink the regular bottled ORS but intakes the powdered form. He’s 15 months can I give him the following?

you have to give ORS dissolved in one litre of water to be effective.Try to encourage him or you can give liquid form(pedialyte) available in different flavours.

You can't give direct I powder form. Dissolve in 1 litter water or give pediatrol liquid.

General Practitioner in Karachi - Dr. Maheen Altaf

Yes u can but make sure to make in proper quantity of water. As they come in different forms for 500 ml and 1 Litre. More diluted and more concentrated both are useless.
