ORS Hydration Blackcurrant Oral Rehydration Tablets

 

You can restore your body's fluid and electrolyte balance with these convenient blackcurrant-flavoured rehydration tablets. Each tablet dissolves in water to create a scientifically formulated solution that helps replace lost fluids and essential minerals during dehydration.

These tablets contain the optimal ratio of glucose and electrolytes recommended by the World Health Organisation for effective rehydration. The blackcurrant flavour makes the solution more palatable, encouraging you to drink the full amount needed for proper rehydration.

 

How These Rehydration Tablets Work

 

When you dissolve these tablets in water, they create a solution that enhances your body's ability to absorb fluids. The glucose present helps your intestines absorb sodium and water more efficiently than plain water alone.

The balanced electrolyte content replaces sodium, potassium and chloride lost through sweating, vomiting or diarrhoea. This process helps restore normal cellular function and maintains proper fluid distribution throughout your body.

 

Who Should Use Blackcurrant Rehydration Tablets

 

These oral rehydration tablets are suitable for adults and children over 12 years experiencing mild to moderate dehydration. You may find them particularly useful during illness, after exercise, or in hot weather conditions.

The tablets are appropriate for various situations where fluid replacement is needed:

  • Recovery from gastroenteritis with vomiting or diarrhoea
  • Rehydration after intense physical activity or sports
  • Fluid replacement during hot weather or travel
  • Supporting recovery when feeling unwell with reduced fluid intake

If you're managing other health conditions or taking medications, our vitamins and supplements range includes additional products that may support your overall wellbeing.

 

Why Choose Tablet Form for Rehydration

 

Tablet formulations offer practical advantages over liquid alternatives. You can carry them easily without worrying about spillage or storage requirements, making them ideal for travel or keeping in your medicine cabinet.

The precise dosing in tablet form ensures you receive the correct concentration of electrolytes every time. Simply dissolve the recommended number of tablets in the specified amount of water to achieve the optimal rehydration solution.

 

Storage and Shelf Life Considerations

 

Store your tablets in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain their effectiveness. Keep them in their original packaging until use to protect them from moisture, which could affect their ability to dissolve properly.

Check the expiry date before use and do not use tablets that appear damaged, discoloured or have an unusual odour. Once dissolved in water, use the solution immediately and do not store prepared solutions for later use.

This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

 

How to Prepare Your Rehydration Solution

Dissolve one tablet in 200ml of clean, cool water and stir until completely dissolved. Allow the tablet to fully dissolve before drinking to ensure you receive the proper concentration of electrolytes. The solution should be clear with a blackcurrant flavour once properly mixed.

Drink the prepared solution slowly over 15-20 minutes rather than consuming it quickly. This allows your body to absorb the fluids and electrolytes more effectively and reduces the likelihood of stomach discomfort.

Recommended Usage Guidelines

Adults and children over 12 years should take one to two tablets dissolved in water as needed for rehydration. You may repeat this every few hours depending on your level of dehydration and fluid loss.

Do not exceed the recommended number of tablets per day as stated on the packaging. If you continue to feel unwell or your symptoms worsen after using this product, consult your doctor or pharmacist for further advice.

Potential Side Effects of Rehydration Tablets

Like all medicines, ORS Hydration Blackcurrant Tablets can have side effects, although not everyone will experience them. Most people tolerate oral rehydration solutions well when used as directed.

The most commonly reported side effects are mild and typically relate to the digestive system. These usually resolve once your body adjusts to the solution or when you slow down the rate of consumption. You can find additional support for digestive concerns in our indigestion collection if needed.

  • Nausea or feeling sick
  • Mild stomach discomfort
  • Bloating or feeling full
  • Loose stools or mild diarrhoea
  • Vomiting if consumed too quickly
  • Temporary changes in taste
  • Mild headache
  • Dizziness when standing up quickly
  • Increased thirst initially
  • Mild cramping in the stomach area

If you experience these or any other side effects, speak to your doctor or pharmacist right away. For more information about reporting side effects please see the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme.
