Product Description 9. Manufacturer and Product Registration Holder 10. Date of Revision WHAT UPHALYTE IS USED FOR Uphalyte is used for replacement of water and electrolyte loss associated with diarrhoea and vomiting. HOW UPHALYTE WORKS Uphalyte contains Sodium chloride, Sodium bicarbonate, Potassium chloride and Glucose anhydrous. Absorption of these electrolyte and water will help replenish the loss. Ask your doctor if you have any questions about why this medicine has been prescribed for you. Your doctor may have prescribed it for another reason. BEFORE YOU USE UPHALYTE - _When you must not take it _ Do not take this medicine if you have an allergy to the ingredients listed at the end of this leaflet. The use of oral rehydration should not be used except under special circumstances: No or little urine output, severe dehydration with symptoms of shock (some of the examples are rapid heartbeat, quick and shallow breathing and low blood pressure), severe diarrhoea, inability to drink, severe and sustained vomiting. glucose absorption disorder bowel or intestinal obstruction, perforation or delayed movement Do not take this medicine after the expiry date printed on the pack or if the packaging is torn or shows signs of tampering. If it has expired or is damaged, return it to your pharmacist for disposal. If you are not sure whether you should start taking this medicine, talk to your doctor. - _Before you start to use it _ Tell your doctor if you have allergies to any other medicines, foods, preservatives or dyes.

DESCRIPTION DOSAGE _UPHALYTE Oral Rehydration Salts (Natural):_ White colour granules, when dissolve in water, forms a natural flavor, clear solution. _UPHALYTE Oral Rehydration Salts (Orange):_ White to off-white colour granules, when dissolve in water, forms an orange flavor and orange colour solution. Each sachet contains sodium chloride 525mg, sodium bicarbonate 425mg, potassium chloride 375mg, and glucose anhydrous 6.25gm. When reconstituted (1 sachet in 250ml of water), the ionic concentration is as follows: Na 56mmol/l, K 20mmol/l, CI 56mmol/l, HCO 3 - 20mmol/l, Glucose 139mmol/l. For replacement of water and electrolyte loss associated with diarrhoea and vomiting. Oral rehydration salts are given orally to prevent or treat dehydration due to acute diarrhoea. Essential water and salts are lost in stools and vomitus, and dehydration results when blood volume is decreased because of fluid loss from the extracellular fluid compart- ment. Preservation of the facilitated glucose-sodium cotransport system in the small-bowel mucosa is the rationale of the oral rehydration therapy. Glucose is actively absorbed in the normal intestine and carries sodium with it in about an equimolar ration. Therefore, there is a greater net absorption of an isotonic salt solution with glucose than one without it. Potassium replacement during acute diarrhoea prevents below-normal serum concentra- tions of potassium, especially in children, in whom stool potassium losses are higher than in adults. Bicarbonates are effective in correcting the metabolic acidosis caused by diarrhoea and dehydration. Uphalyte Oral Rehydration Salts contains anhydrous glucose, sodium chloride, potassium chloride and sodium bicarbonate which are essential for the body. Sodium chloride is involved in maintaining the osmotic tension of the blood and tissues. Sodium bicarbonate is involved in the management of acid-base disturbances due to diarrhoea. Potassium is involved in muscular contraction, conduction of nerves impulses, enzyme action and cell + + - ³ Baca dokumen lengkap
