The oral rehydration salts (ORS) market focuses on producing and commercializing products used to treat dehydration caused by diarrhea, vomiting, or other medical conditions. ORS is an oral fluid developed by the World Health Organization to improve the intestinal absorption of fluid and electrolytes. It is historically used to correct dehydration and reduce mortality in diarrheal disease, and patients with severe bowel syndrome have shown improved hydration. ORS stimulates jejunal glucose-sodium cotransporters to drag fluid across the intestinal mucosa, maintaining metabolic balance during severe diarrhea. The increasing prevalence of diarrhea in low and middle-income countries (LMICs), particularly in Africa, drives market growth. Diarrhea accounted for 9% of all deaths in children under five worldwide in 2021. Government initiatives, such as the Intensified Diarrhoea Control Fortnight (IDCF) in India, raise awareness about the use of ORS and zinc in diarrhea to prevent child deaths due to childhood diarrhea. This growing awareness accelerates the market expansion. However, limited distribution vendors limit the market growth.
The powder segment held the largest share in 2023 and is predicted to grow at a significant CAGR during the predicted period.
