What is o r s?

ORS, or Oral Rehydration Solution, is a simple, effective treatment for dehydration, especially due to diarrhea or vomiting. It consists of a precise balance of salts (electrolytes) and sugars dissolved in clean water, which helps replenish lost fluids and electrolytes. ORS is widely used in healthcare settings and at home, particularly in developing countries, to prevent severe dehydration and reduce mortality in children and vulnerable populations. Its formulation is recognized by health organizations like the WHO for its effectiveness.
