An oral rehydration therapy containing a balanced mixture of glucose, glycine and electrolytes for the treatment of dehydration and electrolyte imbalance.

Add the contents of Section A and Section B of one Lectade sachet to 2 litres of warm water. Stir until dissolved. Feed the appropriate quantity of Lectade and store remainder in a cool place until next treatment is required. Prepare fresh Lectade solution daily.

Section A and B must always be used together when preparing Lectade solution.

500 mL of Lectade solution can be made up using a 5 mL medicine spoon, by adding 1 level spoonful of powder from Section A and 3 heaped spoonfuls of powder from Section B to 500 mL of warm water. Stir until dissolved.

General note: Where specific disease control (e.g. antibiotic therapy) is indicated, this can be administered in conjunction with Lectade.
