What to know or do

Small regular sips may be easier than a large drink, but worsening dehydration needs assessment and may need treatment.

What changes the answer

  • The exact ingredients and caffeine or alcohol shown on the label
  • Serving size and what else you have had across the whole day
  • Whether vomiting, diabetes, dehydration or another condition changes the plan
