Composition

Sodium chloride + sodium citrate + potassium chloride + dextrose.

Indications

• restoration of water-electrolyte balance, correction of acidosis in acute diarrhea (including cholera), with thermal lesions associated with disturbances in water-electrolyte metabolism; for the purpose of prophylaxis - thermal and physical loads, leading to intense sweating;
• rehydration oral therapy for acute diarrhea with mild (weight loss is 3-5%) or average (weight loss - 6-10%) degree of dehydration.
