Oral rehydration salt:

The goal of oral rehydration therapy is to replenish the body’s fluid levels. It’s typically used to treat moderate dehydration due to diarrhea, vomiting, or other conditions. 

ORS (oral rehydration salt) is a powder formula that has the following ingredients:

• • Water
  • Mineral electrolytes or salts (potassium chloride, sodium citrate and sodium chloride) etc. 
  • Sugars (mainly dextrose). 

ORS packed in multi-ply laminated aluminum foil sachets, as product can be affected by highly humid environmental conditions. A compound of polyethylene (inside), aluminum (middle), and polyester or any other suitable coating compound (outside) has proven to be a satisfactory combination for packing ORS.
