Easy to dissolve in water and packed with electrolytes, Hydralyte tablets help replace fluids and maintain hydration levels during illness, whether it’s the flu, a tummy bug, or just a day when your kid refuses to drink anything that isn’t bright pink.
And if you’re keen on trying a different flavour, the Peach Crush Effervescent Tablets are also on sale for just $10.99, with over 100 sold in the past month.
It’s a fruity twist on flu season prep that kids will actually enjoy.
It’s official: Australia is battling a brutal cold and flu season, and it’s hitting families hard.
With flu cases already 30 per cent higher than this time last year, health experts are urging Aussies to get proactive about winter wellness. And the first step? Staying properly hydrated.
According to the National Notifiable Diseases Surveillance System, the country is seeing record-breaking numbers of flu infections, prompting leading paediatrician Dr Johnny Taitz to issue an urgent reminder: “Dehydration is a common symptom of the flu. Sweating and diarrhoea from the flu can mean that children and adults can easily become dehydrated, so it’s critical to keep hydration levels up.”
For those after a hydration hit with a little extra punch, the Liquid I.V. Hydration Multiplier is another trending buy. This powder sachet has 16 per cent savings, now $50.99 for a bulk 30-pack.
While it’s a bigger upfront investment, shoppers swear by it for faster hydration and better recovery during illness or travel.
With cases only expected to rise in the coming weeks, there’s no better time to prep your household.
Whether it’s toddlers prone to tummy bugs or teens running themselves ragged with sports and school, having hydration support on hand can make all the difference.
So yes, winter’s coming, but with a few smart buys and a little proactive planning, you’ll be ready to tackle it head-on.
