Oral Rehydration Solutions

  • What they are: Oral rehydration solutions (ORS) are specially formulated liquids that contain the right balance of water, sugar, and electrolytes (like salt) to help your baby rehydrate effectively.
  • Examples: Pedialyte® and Enfalyte® are well-known brands, but many stores also offer their own store brands.
  • Availability: You can purchase ORS without a prescription at most drugstores or supermarkets.

Therefore, according to the reference, the best liquid for dehydrated kids is an oral rehydration solution, like Pedialyte® and Enfalyte® (and many stores also have a store brand). It has the right amounts of water, sugar, and salt to help with dehydration. You can buy it without a prescription at drugstores or supermarkets.
