Pedialyte is formulated to help prevent dehydration more effectively than common household beverages like water, juice, soda, or sports drinks. Pedialyte contains up to 50% less sugar than sports drinks.
Unlike sports drinks, juice, and soda, Pedialyte contains the optimal balance of sugar and sodium recommended by experts to help prevent dehydration. This optimal balance also enhances intestinal fluid and electrolyte absorption into the bloodstream.
Sports drinks are too high in sugar, which can make symptoms worse (when dehydration is due to diarrhea and vomiting). Rehydrate with Pedialyte to feel better fast.
