Dosage Regimen
| The method of application and dosage regimen for a specific drug depend on its form of release and other factors. The optimal dosage regimen is determined by the doctor. It is necessary to strictly adhere to the compliance of the dosage form of a specific drug with the indications for use and dosage regimen. |
Dissolve the entire contents of one sachet in one liter of freshly boiled and cooled drinking water.
Use the prepared solution within 24 hours; discard any unused portion after this period.
Administer the solution orally in small, frequent volumes.
For rehydration, administer a minimum dose of 30 ml per kg of body weight over a period of 6 to 10 hours following the onset of diarrhea.
For outpatient maintenance therapy, administer an average dose of 60 ml per kg of body weight over a 24-hour period until diarrhea ceases.
Adjust the total volume administered according to the patient’s fluid losses, as determined by the number and volume of stools and the presence of vomiting.
For pediatric patients, calculate the dose based on body weight and administer using a spoon or bottle in small, frequent amounts.
In cases of vomiting, pause administration for 10 minutes following an episode, then resume giving the solution slowly, in small sips.
Continue administration to replace ongoing fluid losses from persistent diarrhea.
Do not exceed recommended dosages unless directed by a physician based on confirmed electrolyte needs.
Seek immediate medical attention for signs of severe dehydration or if symptoms worsen despite therapy.
Adverse Reactions
Systemic reactions risk of developing hypernatremia (increased sodium content in the blood).
Contraindications
Severe dehydration; coma (unconscious state); intestinal obstruction; severe vomiting; diarrhea caused by cholera; glucose-galactose malabsorption; hypersensitivity to the components of the combination.
Use in Pregnancy and Lactation
In recommended doses, it can be used during pregnancy and lactation.
Pediatric Use
If it is necessary to use in children, the instructions should be carefully studied.
Special Precautions
Given the composition of the drug, caution should be exercised in patients with diabetes mellitus, impaired liver or kidney function, as well as in patients on a low-salt diet (sodium and/or potassium).
In patients with diabetes mellitus, renal failure and some other chronic diseases, diarrhea can cause a significant disruption in maintaining fluid or glucose balance. Therefore, the treatment of diarrhea in such patients may require laboratory monitoring and hospitalization.
If the patient’s need for additional electrolyte administration is not confirmed by laboratory tests, the recommended doses should not be exceeded.
Severe dehydration (weight loss >10%, cessation of urination) should be treated with intravenous rehydration drugs, after which the use of the solution can be started.
In case of vomiting, wait 10 minutes after the end of the vomiting episode and give the solution to drink slowly, in small sips.
The patient should consult a doctor if the following situations occur during use:
- Slurred speech, irritability, rapid fatigue, drowsiness, stupor occur;
- Temperature rises above 39°C (102.2°F);
- Bloody stools;
- Persistent vomiting;
- Diarrhea lasts more than 2 days;
- Severe abdominal pain.
The use of this combination to replenish salt loss in diarrhea developing in cholera and a number of other severe intestinal infections may be insufficient.
Persons with renal failure or on a low-potassium diet should take into account that the preparation contains potassium.
Drug Interactions
The drug solution has a weakly alkaline reaction, therefore it can affect medicinal products whose absorption depends on the pH of the intestinal contents.
Storage Conditions
Store at 2°C (36°F) to 25°C (77°F). Keep in original packaging, protected from light. Keep out of reach of children.
