    OP is asking if pedialyte is okay. It is a replacement for electrolytes in a child's system. Usually given during or after diarrhea.

    Hopefully your translation of it is right... it sounded to me like... that her infant likes pedilyte... and she was wondering if that was a bad thing? That's why I had toi ask.

    It isn't medicine and my translation is correct. You read it right. It isn't unusual, it tastes good.

    And that being the point... they work hard to make it that way... you can get an adult to drink something that tastes like crap... trying to get an infant or child to is another...
