Care Plus Oral Rehydration Salts Care Plus Oral Rehydration Salts contain a mixture of salts and glucose (sugar) that can be used to help rehydrate the body when required. Dehydration can be caused by various things such as extended exercise (particularly in a hot climate) and diarrhoea - the curse of many a traveller. Small children and older people can be particularly susceptable to suffering from dehydration in these circumstances. Care Plus Oral Rehydration Salts can help by stimulating the intake of fluid from the intestines. Each packet contains 12 sachets and typically if diarrhoea is the problem you would drink the contents of one sachet dissolved in a glass of water after each attack. Each sachet contains 5.3g of Lemon and Lime flavoured rehydration salts and should be dissolved in 200ml of water (a typical glass). Click here and wait a while to see the ingredient list...

Care Plus ORS Scoop The Care Plus ORS Scoop is a very simple piece of kit - but also a potential life saver! Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) are widely considered to be the best method for combating the dehydration caused by diarrhoea - but if you don't have any sachets left you can make up your own solution using the ORS Scoop to measure out the correct proportions. It has two compartments - one for sugar and one for salt, thereby allowing you to prepare the solution using the salt and sugar ratio recommended by the World Health Organisation. The Care Plus ORS Scoop is only 5cm long so it can be easily stored in a first aid or attached to a key ring or zipper so that it is always on hand.
