Important Warnings
- Do not use if you are allergic to sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium citrate dihydrate, glucose, or any other ingredient in Osmosal.
- Osmosal is not enough for severe dehydration or shock caused by diarrhea; seek medical help immediately.
- Never give Osmosal to anyone who cannot swallow, due to choking risk.
- Always mix Osmosal powder with the correct amount of water (0.5 liters) to ensure it works effectively. Too little water can lead to too much salt intake.
