Suitable for

Infants, children and adults.

Please read the enclosed leaflet carefully before use.

Dissolve contents of one Dioralyte sachet in 200ml (approx. 7 fl oz) of drinking water. Use fresh drinking water for adults and children. For infants, and where drinking water is unavailable, the water should be freshly boiled then cooled.

The solution should be made up immediately before use. If refrigerated the solution may be stored for up to 24 hours, otherwise any solution remaining one hour after reconstitution should be discarded.

Dioralyte must only be reconstituted with water and to the volume stated. A lesser or greater dilution may result in electrolyte imbalance.
