Electral Sachet Of 21.80gm Oral Powder
Medical Description
Electral powder is an oral rehydration salt (ORS) based on the WHO formula. It is used for restoring fluids and electrolytes in the body that are lost due to dehydration during diarrhoea, vomiting or other conditions. It contains a combination of salt and sugar (sodium citrate, sodium chloride, potassium chloride and dextrose). Walyte sachet, Electrobion sachet and Electrokind sachet are some other oral rehydration salts (ORS) based on the WHO formula.
The combination of electrolytes and sugar stimulates water and electrolyte absorption from the gut. It, therefore, prevents or reverses dehydration and replaces lost salts in conditions such as diarrhoea and vomiting. Use Electral powder as directed by your doctor or pharmacist and read the label carefully before use.
