When can I use electrolytes during Ramadan?

You should use O.R.S Hydration Tablets during the hours when eating and drinking is allowed - after the sunset, and before the sunrise. Take O.R.S electrolyte solution:

  • During Suhoor: together with your pre-dawn meal. The time for Suhoor ends at dawn, just before the Fajr prayer.
  • During Iftar: together with your meal after the sunset
  • Between Iftar and Suhoor: hydrate smart - dissolve O.R.S tablet(s) in plain water and sip during the time when eating/drinking is allowed. Avoid fizzy and sugary drinks.

It’s advisable to hydrate in smaller amounts for the first two hours before and after the fasting period, rather than drink a large volume of water in one go. This is because the body can’t process a sudden influx of fluid as well, and most of it will pass straight through. 

Our pharmacist-formulated electrolyte tablets support and overall health, recovery and sports performance, keeping you energised and hydrated no matter the occasion.
