Diarrhea isn't fun, especially for children. (In that case, diarrhea isn't fun for Mom and Dad, either.) Diarrhea, and vomiting, can drain your child's body of the water and electrolytes he or she needs to stay healthy. Estimates vary, but most agree about 60 percent of the human body is water, slightly higher for children. When illness saps a child's fluid levels, it's important to contact your healthcare provider and work together to get those fluids and electrolytes replenished right away.On tap: GoodSense Pediatric Electrolyte Solution.
