Dehydration Treatment

dehydration is common when travelling is because traveller’s diarrhoea is another ailment that many suffer with. Persistently vomiting or passing stools can make you lose more water than you realise, and diarrhoea also causes you to lose salts and other minerals too. If you are vomiting, it’s likely that you won’t be able to keep down the water you do drink either, which in turn worsens the dehydration. If the cause of this is an illness (rather than a food intolerance), then you could also experience a high fever, which increases the amount you sweat (and the amount of water you lose). A further common cause of dehydration is drinking too much alcohol. Alcohol makes you urinate more frequently because it’s a diuretic, and it prevents the kidneys from reabsorbing the maximum amount of water that they can. The symptoms of a hangover (such as headache and dry mouth) are typically caused by dehydration more than anything else.
