Reduced Osmolarity ORS Packet
USES:
Used for treating mild to
moderate dehydration due to
cholera and other acute
diarrhoeal diseases
ADVANTAGES :
1. Reduced concentration of glucose and sodium chloride in the solution has limited the
adverse effect due to hypertonicity of the fluid

2. Reduced-osmolarity ORS solution significantly reduces stool output by 20%, vomiting by

30%, and the need for unscheduled intravenous infusion in non cholera diarrhoea by 33%
• If it is not available then home made fluids like rice water, dal or dal water with salt,
butter milk (lassi), lemon water and coconut water are to be given at household level
