Does anyone know where to get Pedialyte in Hong Kong? I was told that Gatorade is not a good substitute for hydration in kids with diarrhea.


Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

depending on how old your child is Pocari Sweat is ok for kids with diarrhea.

Pocari Sweat does seem a lot less sugary than Gatorade, and it's the sugar that's not good when kids have diarrhea. I'll pick some up today and give that a try. My daughter is 4 yrs old btw. Wish her luck today!


Thanks a lot for the reply. Have a nice day.

You can buy packets of oral rehydration salts/ solution "ORS" from most pharmacies. They come in small sachets which you mix with water. The brand we use is Milupa GES 45. They are good for both adults and children.

You can also easily make your own oral rehydration solution, for example like this: http://rehydrate.org/solutions/homemade.htm
