## Pharmacist FAQs Answered

### How do I use O.R.S Hydration Tablets?

To use these tablets, dissolve the specified number in water as directed. For example, many instructions say to dissolve 2 tablets in 200 mL of drinking water (about 7 oz). Sip the solution slowly to rehydrate. In practice, adults (and older children) can drink up to about 2 litres (8½ cups) of the prepared solution per day if needed. Always mix exactly as directed – too much or too little water can upset the balance of salts. If you’re unsure, follow the product instructions or ask a pharmacist for guidance.

### Are O.R.S Hydration Tablets safe for children and pregnant women?

O.R.S tablets are generally family-safe. The standard formula is suitable for children ages 3 and up, and a paediatrics-friendly version is also available. For very young children, a doctor will advise on the proper dose – one leaflet, for example, says to dissolve 2 tablets in 200 mL of water and give it slowly to a sick child. Pregnant or breastfeeding women can usually use these low-sugar electrolyte tablets safely when needed. As with any medicine or supplement, it’s best to check with your healthcare provider during pregnancy or if you have any health concerns (e.g. high blood pressure).

### How do O.R.S Hydration Tablets compare to sports drinks?

O.R.S tablets are an oral rehydration solution (ORS) designed to replace fluids and salts quickly. Unlike most sports drinks, which focus on high sugar content for quick energy, ORS formulas have higher sodium and potassium with little or no added sugar. In fact, studies show that during exercise, there’s no difference in fluid retention whether people use a sports drink or an ORS. Essentially, O.R.S tablets replenish electrolytes more efficiently, helping water absorb better into your body. Think of sports drinks as “energy + electrolytes” and ORS tablets as pure “water + electrolytes”; both hydrate you, but ORS minimises extra sugar.

### Can I take O.R.S Hydration Tablets daily or for long-term hydration?

These tablets are meant for occasional rehydration, not for daily use when you’re not dehydrated. If you drink enough water and eat a balanced diet, you usually don’t need an ORS every day. Experts note there’s “no reason to rely on ORS if you do not need it”. Using them unnecessarily can lead to excessive salt intake. Health sources warn that using ORS without need can lead to salt toxicity (hypernatremia). In short, use them when you really need to rehydrate – for example, after heavy sweating, illness or heat exposure – and otherwise stick to regular fluids.

### Are O.R.S Hydration Tablets suitable for travel, exercise, and hot weather?

O.R.S tablets are very handy for travel and exercise when the risk of dehydration is higher. They follow WHO formulas to replace fluids and electrolytes lost (for example, from traveller's diarrhoea or intense sweating). Travellers often carry plain water, but adding an ORS tablet ensures fast electrolyte replenishment without extra sugar. For sports and hot weather, the tablets help maintain hydration and can prevent cramps. Studies have shown that ORS solutions are as effective as sports drinks for keeping you hydrated during exercise. Simply dissolve a tablet in water and sip regularly during your trip or workout to stay optimally hydrated.

### What side effects should I be aware of when using O.R.S Hydration Tablets?

When used correctly, side effects are rare. However, if the mix is too concentrated (too salty), you might feel nausea or even vomit. Overuse or using ORS when not needed can cause hypernatremia (high blood salt). Certain people should be cautious: those with kidney problems, heart failure, high blood pressure or diabetes should talk to a doctor first. In general, follow mixing directions carefully and stop using the tablets if you notice any adverse symptoms. If in doubt, seek medical advice for guidance on safe use.
