What Does Pedialyte Do?
Pedialyte replenishes fluids and electrolytes to help rehydrate your body. Because water doesn't contain enough electrolytes to replenish levels after mild to moderate dehydration, it is often not enough to bring the body back into balance. Pedialyte contains fluids and electrolytes that can help rehydrate the body.

What Is Pedialyte Used For?
Pedialyte is used to help replenish fluids and electrolytes lost due to mild to moderate dehydration. Reasons for mild to moderate dehydration can include: the stomach flu, food poisoning, travel, heat exposure, and exercise. In most cases, Pedialyte can help replenish your fluids and electrolytes after these events. However, if your mild to moderate dehydration symptoms do not go away, or if your symptoms become severe, you should seek medical attention.
What Is In Pedialyte?
Pedialyte is formulated with optimal, balanced amounts of salt, water, and sugar in order to replenish fluids and electrolytes lost due to mild to moderate dehydration. For a complete list of ingredients, please refer to the label on the product packaging of the individual Pedialyte product you wish to purchase.
How Much Sugar & Sodium Is In Pedialyte?

What Does Pedialyte Taste Like?
Pedialyte is available in a variety of flavors, so taste varies based on the option you choose. Popular Pedialyte flavors include Tropical Fruit, Blue Raspberry, Cherry Punch, Grape, Strawberry, and more. If you are giving your child Pedialyte for the first time, it can be a good idea to purchase a few different flavors until you find one that you know he or she enjoys.
How To Make Pedialyte Taste Better
If you child is picky about flavors and doesn't like any of the Pedialyte options, consider chilling Pedialyte before giving it to your child. Pedialyte is thought to taste better cold. If you have multiple flavors on hand, have your little one pick the flavor he or she would like to drink. You can also try putting Pedialyte in a special cup to help entice your child to sip on it. However, if your little one continues to be reluctant to drink, you should contact your pediatrician.
