In hot weather or if you exercise a lot, you may find re-hydration drinks useful. Here are a couple of recipes.

  • 1 litre water
  • 2 Tbsp. sugar
  • 1/3 to 1/2 tsp. salt
  • Lemon juice (optional)

Another recipe is:

  • 2 tsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 litre of water

Feel free to experiment, and adjust the recipe to your own taste.As well, during very hot weather, or if sweating a lot while working outdoors, you may want to discuss with your medical advisor whether increasing your dosage of florinef either on hot days or every other day would be appropriate for you.
