Dioralyte is an over-the-counter treatment for diarrhoea. It is available in sachets of flavoured powder which you mix with water and drink.
The medicine replenishes the salts and electrolytes that are lost during bouts of diarrhoea and vomiting. Dioralyte sachets are available in 3 flavours from our online pharmacy: natural, citrus and blackcurrant.
It's important to note that while Dioralyte prevents dehydration while you have diarrhoea, it does not treat the underlying cause of your diarrhoea. If you experience diarrhoea regularly, speak to your doctor for advice. They will be able to discuss the possible reason for your diarrhoea, and provide advice on how to prevent diarrhoea in the future. Diarrhoea causes your body to lose more fluid through stools. If your body loses too much fluid, it can lead to dehydration.
While treating diarrhoea, you must drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated. Avoid drinking alcohol or coffee if you have diarrhoea, as these can worsen diarrhoea or dehydration. Instead, drink water and fruit juice. Seek advice from your doctor, or call NHS , if you have been experiencing diarrhoea for 7 days or longer.

Our online prescribers are available to discuss treatments with you, and our team of pharmacists ensure that you receive high-quality products. Dioralyte contains rehydration salts sodium chloride, potassium chloride and disodium hydrogen citrate and glucose. This combination of electrolyte salts enhances the uptake of fluid by the intestines to rehydrate the body.
The rehydration process reduces fluid in stool, making stools firmer and less watery. The rehydration salts, also known as electrolytes, help the body to retain fluids more efficiently, keeping the body hydrated for longer. Do not use more or less than ml 7 fl oz. Using too little or too much water may affect how well the medicine works. Drink the solution within 1 hour of mixing at room temperature.
If kept refrigerated after mixing, drink the solution within 24 hours. Discard any unused solution after one hour, if kept at room temperature, and after 24 hours, if stored in a refrigerator.
