About Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS)
Oral Rehydration Salts (ORS) is one of the most important and life-saving medical interventions ever developed, and it is arguably the single most critical medication in Nigeria's fight against diarrhoeal disease. ORS is a precisely balanced mixture of glucose (sugar), sodium chloride (salt), potassium chloride, and trisodium citrate that, when dissolved in clean water, creates a solution that the body can absorb rapidly to replace fluids and electrolytes lost through diarrhoea and vomiting. The science behind ORS is elegantly simple: glucose enhances the absorption of sodium and water in the small intestine through a process called sodium-glucose co-transport, allowing the body to rehydrate even when the gut is inflamed and leaking fluid. This discovery has been described by The Lancet as potentially the most important medical advance of the 20th century. In Nigeria, ORS is available in virtually every pharmacy, patent medicine store, health centre, and many market stalls across all 36 states and the FCT.
