What is Novalac Hydranova used for?
In the tumultuous world of children's health, where every little ailment can seem like a mountain, Novalac Hydranova stands as a beacon of relief and support. This product is designed to respond to a very common emergency among the very young: acute diarrhea and gastroenteritis. These situations, far from being trivial, carry with them the significant risk of dehydration, a danger that should never be underestimated in infants and children.
Novalac Hydranova is more than just a supplement; it's an essential ally in the fight against dehydration. Its advanced formulation enables effective oral rehydration, a fundamental criterion for restoring the body's water balance. Offering small quantities frequently, especially in cases of vomiting, becomes a winning strategy with these sachets. The principle is simple: one teaspoon (5 ml) every one or two minutes at first, increasing to 50 ml every 15 minutes, for as long as the child feels the need to hydrate.
Novalac Hydranova's active ingredients, such as glucose and maltodextrins, play a crucial role in the rehydration process, providing the necessary energy quickly and promoting water absorption. Sodium chloride and tripotassium citrate, meanwhile, help restore electrolyte balance, essential for rapid, effective recovery.
Beyond its active ingredients, the practicality of this product is indisputable. Dose sachets are easy to carry, prepare and administer, making the rehydration process not only effective but also accessible, even on the move. This means less stress for parents and greater comfort for the child, a winning combination in difficult times.
Novalac Hydranova is much more than just a product; it's a complete solution, designed for the well-being of children and the peace of mind of parents. Its ability to act quickly against dehydration and restore fluid and electrolyte balance, while being easy to use, makes it a must-have in the family health kit. Your child's health deserves the very best, and Hydranova is here to meet that need.

Expert advice
Infants' intestinal health plays a key role in their overall well-being. At birth, their microbiota is still immature. Breastfeeding is recommended, as it promotes the development of a balanced intestinal flora thanks to natural prebiotics. It's also important to adopt proper hygiene and limit the use of antibiotics, which can disrupt the flora. In the event of colic, bloating or mild digestive disorders, certain probiotics specifically formulated for infants can be beneficial. Finally, all complementary solutions must be validated by a healthcare professional to ensure appropriate and safe treatment.
