Abstract:
"An oral solution containing glucose, sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium chloride or citrate was used as maintenance therapy for acute cholera. In comparison with control patients who received only intravenous replacement of their stool losses, the patients who received the oral solution required 80% less intravenous fluids for cure. This reduction in requirements for intravenous fluids could make therapy for acute cholera in adults more widely available."

Nalin and Cash are credited with introducing Oral Hydration Therapy for cholera.
