Product Details
Sun Pharmaceutical ORS Powder is a WHO based ORS (Oral Rehydration Salt) formula. Oral rehydration salt is a combination of dextrose and a number of essential electrolytes (Sodium Chloride, Potassium Chloride, Sodium Citrate). ORS Powder restores body fluids and electrolytes, lost due to dehydration during diarrhoea, vomiting, muscle cramping, and exertional heat illness, while exercising in hot or humid weather.

Key Ingredients:
  • Sodium Chloride (NaCl)
  • Potassium Chloride (KCl)
  • Trisodium Citrate Dihydrate
  • Dextrose Anhydrous

Key Benefits:
  • Sodium Chloride is essential for promoting fluid balance. It is utilised by body cells for its normal function
  • Potassium is an extremely important electrolyte that functions in the maintenance of water balance and distribution, acid-base balance, muscle and nerve cell function, heart function, kidney and adrenal function
  • Dextrose anhydrous is the purest form of dextrose, commonly called glucose. Dextrose anhydrous provides instant energy. It is the primary ingredient in oral rehydration salts (ORS)
  • Trisodium citrate dihydrate is a tribasic salt of citric acid. It is produced by complete neutralisation of citric acid with high purity sodium source and subsequent crystallisation
