The best option and drink for any diarrhea remains water. As much as possible.
What you are probably talking about is the ORS powder. In such situation, you will need to take salt with water. Mild sugar can be added so that saline itself does not cause emesis.
If there is any further information you need or any specific information you require, please feel free to contact us for more information.
Best of luck. Dr Mittal
