Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. yes
how to make ors
if you buy a small sachet(4.4gm) you have to mix it in 200 ml water. and if you are buying a larger sachet (21.8gm) then you have to mix in 1 ltr water.
the ors made can be used within 24 hours. it can be offered in sips to the child.
avoid using force when giving ors to the child.
you have to just offer the amount of ors according to the loss of fluid. so if you feel that the child has lost around 100 ml of fluid in either vomiting or loose motion then you can offer that much amount in sips within next 1 to 2 hours.
(if calculation is not possible give half glass ors to small children and full 1 glass ors to big children for every episode of fluid loss in sips)

AbhayaMom of a 15 yr 9 m old boy1 Year agoA. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much. But it is really very difficult to say anything without proper examination of the baby. It is advisable to get the baby evaluated by a doctor and follow doctors advise properly. You can also book online doctor’s appointment on FirstCry where the doctor can help you and guide you properly
Thanks and take care
