The Formula
O.R.S Hydration Tablets have been formulated to WHO standards, after years of research into the science of hydration.
The O.R.S formula contains the precise combination of salts, glucose and essential minerals needed by the body to correct electrolyte imbalance, increase fluid absorption and bring your hydration levels back into balance.
