What’s the maximum number of O.R.S. tablets I can take?

When taken correctly, the manufacturer recommends no more than 24 tablets in one 24-hour period. Each dose contains 0.70g of salt and must be dissolved in 200 ml of water. If taken incorrectly, O.R.S. tables could lead to salt toxicity. So limit your usage only to what you need in order to rehydrate.

Caution on taking O.R.S. tablets

Ideally, O.R.S. should be recommended by your GP or pharmacist after they determine whether they’re necessary and safe for you specifically. There could be a number of factors that impact the safety and effectiveness of oral rehydration salts, including age and overall health. Kidney disorders, diabetes, and blood pressure medications, for example, can all interfere with the correct use and dose of O.R.S. tablets.
