| In solution, this ion helps reduce the osmotic pressure of water from 280 to 300 mOsm/kg to 200 mOsm/kg. Water moves freely between intra-cellular and extra-cellular compartments in response to osmotic pressure gradients created by effective solutes (Na+, K+, and mannitol) that are impermeable to the cell membrane (1). A hyposmolar solution with an osmotic pressure of 200mOsm/L, the product helps rehydrate infants, especially when they have diarrhea. |
