ajw4790 Posted May 6, 2009 Report Share Posted May 6, 2009 Hi everyone!I was at the pharmacy (Walgreens) looking around in the baby aisle at the pedialyte etc. and I came across pediatric electrolyte strips that you let dissolve in your mouth (like the Listerine or mouth freshening strips). They are fast acting etc. At first glance I thought there was a significant amount of sodium and potassium in them, but I think that is for a whole pack (so I am not sure on dosage???). But, I thought it was a neat idea, and easy to have in ones purse! BUT, I guess I didn't look close enough until I got home and they do use artificial sweeteners in these. Urrgghhh! I don't like how all Pedialyte type products have the artificial sweeteners... it is annoying. But, I do (now thinking about it) think I have seen more of a sports quality form of electrolyte replacement in the strip form... I am going to have to go back and look to see if I can find those.So, I thought I would let others know that these strips are out there if you can tolerate the artificial sweeteners (I can't b/c of migraine). I really like the convienent idea behind it! Oh well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
