Here are some of the main indications for Litorsal:

• Litorsal treats hydroelectrolytic depletion, when the body suffers from an imbalance or significant decrease in fluid and electrolyte levels. It contains potassium, sodium and glucose, restoring the hydroelectrolytic balance and optimal levels in the body.
• Litorsal contains 180 mg of vitamin C in 3 effervescent tablets. Vitamin C is essential for the immune system, iron absorption, collagen production and antioxidant activity. Litorsal is therefore a useful vitamin C supplement.
• Athletes or those involved in intense physical activity in hot and humid environments benefit from Litorsal for rehydration and restoration of fluid and electrolyte levels after excessive sweating and loss of mineral salts.
• If your diet does not provide enough potassium, sodium and glucose, Litorsal can be used as a supplement to ensure adequate intake of these nutrients. However, it is important to have a balanced and varied diet to obtain all the necessary nutrients.

• Litorsal is recommended for hydration and mineralisation of the body. It can be used in cases where it is necessary to supplement the intake of vitamin C, potassium, sodium and glucose in the body.
• Litorsal is contraindicated in certain situations and should be avoided in the following cases:
• Hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients of the medicine: If you have a sensitivity or allergic reaction to any of the active or inactive ingredients in Litorsal, it is important to avoid using it. If you are aware of an allergy to any ingredient in the composition, you should consult your doctor before using this medicine.
• Severe kidney failure: People with severe kidney failure, meaning seriously impaired kidney function, should avoid using Litorsal. The kidneys are responsible for removing substances from the body, including medicines, and impaired kidney function can lead to excessive accumulation of the active substances in Litorsal in the body.
• Severe heart failure: In people with severe heart failure, which is a condition where the heart does not pump blood efficiently around the body, the use of Litorsal may be contraindicated. The medicine may contain components that affect the balance of fluids and electrolytes in the body, which may put additional strain on the heart and worsen the symptoms of heart failure.
• Acid-base balance disorders: Litorsal may influence the acid-base balance of the body. Therefore, people suffering from acid-base balance disorders, such as metabolic or respiratory disorders that affect blood pH, should avoid using this medicine without consulting their doctor.

The recommended dose of Litorsal is 3 effervescent tablets per day, or 3 sachets per day. Each tablet should be dissolved in 200 ml of water. It is important to follow the instructions on the packaging carefully and not to exceed the recommended dose.

Litorsal is generally well tolerated. However, in some cases, side effects may occur. These may include minor digestive disorders such as nausea, vomiting, abdominal discomfort or diarrhoea. If you experience any unusual or persistent side effects, tell your doctor immediately.
