A member asked:
My daughter is dehydrated & refuses anything but pedialyte or water at the moment. is it okay to give her coconut water?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Coconut water: First depends on how old she is? Secondly while coconut water is okay to drink - it can cause diarrhea - so I would be very cautious. If you feel that she is dehydrated perhaps you should go and see the pediatrician or take her to the hospital for IV fluids.
