Oralade Oral Rehydration for Cats & Dogs 500ml
Description:
With a great tasting natural roast chicken flavour ready to use Oralade is the first scientifically formulated small animal (dogs and cats) Oral Rehydration Support (ORS). Specially formulated to be Isotonic for fast absorption and rehydration.
Hydration support during; hot weather, travel, exercise, whelping.
Oralade uses only purified water, natural chicken flavour and essential electrolytes, glucose, and amino acids to create an extremely palatable, fast acting solution that dogs and cats love, even when nauseous!
Water makes up approximately 60-65% of an adult animal’s body weight and is essential for nearly all normal body functions to occur.
Fluid balance in your pet, including how water is absorbed or secreted, is intrinsically linked to the concentration of certain molecules known as electrolytes. Even slight alterations in electrolytes can significantly impact hydration levels in the body and therefore the normal functioning of cells and organs.
In healthy animals, regulatory mechanisms ensure minor daily variations in fluid and electrolytes have minimal impact on normal physiology. However excessive fluid and electrolyte loss, or significantly reduced intake, will rapidly disrupt this balance.
As simple and easy as 1,2,3…
1: Prehydration – Maintaining health and vitality:
Oralade’s scientifically formulated isotonic solution supports optimal absorption of fluids and electrolytes in perfect harmony with the body’s natural requirements.
Proactive management and early intervention, when increased fluid loss or decreased fluid intake is anticipated, is key to maintaining a healthy hydration status.
2: Rehydration – Supporting fluid and electrolyte balance:
Oralade is a fast-acting ORS containing the precise ratio of glucose and electrolytes necessary to activate and support glucose-stimulated sodium (and water) absorption from the intestinal lumen. Helping maintain normal hydration even during periods of gastrointestinal disturbance.
3: Micro enteral GI Support – Helping maintain intestinal function and integrity:
