Dioralyte Blackcurrant Flavour is a fast and effective rehydration treatment – it helps to replace the loss of fluid and body salts caused by diarrhoea. Dioralyte has been specially formulated to contain a balance of essential body salts (for your wellbeing) and glucose (to better absorb the body salts and water). It hyrates you faster and more effectively than water alone.
- 6 sachets of oral electrolyte powder
- Blackcurrant flavour
- Rehydration treatment
- For fast and effective replacement of lost water and body salts
The active substances are glucose, sodium chloride, potassium chloride and disodium hydrogen citrate.
The other ingredients are saccharin sodium, silicon dioxide. The blackcurrant version also contains blackcurrant flavour.
