How to take oral rehydration salt powder?

Oral rehydration salts are the preferred oral rehydration drug for diarrhea recommended by WHO. Because its electrolyte ratio adopts the best ratio for diarrhea and dehydration, it is not recommended to use homemade sugar and salt water to replace oral rehydration salts. Each bag of oral rehydration salt powder should be prepared at one time according to the recommended ratio in the drug instructions, stirred evenly, and taken from the beginning of diarrhea until the diarrhea stops. The powder cannot be eaten directly, nor can it be prepared in batches or the amount of water can be added or reduced at will. Changes in concentration will affect the efficacy of the drug. Do not add milk, juice, sugar and other substances to the prepared solution. For infants, the prepared liquid can be stored in small bottles and sealed, and taken in batches. Heat it in water until warm before taking.
