Which session is “Hydration Multiplier” for?
Strength vs ORS, per litre · mixed at 1 stick / 500 ml
| Per litre | ORS rehydration baseline |
Hydration Multiplier this sku |
|---|---|---|
| Sodium | 1,724 mg | 1,144 mg ▼ 0.66× |
| Sugar / glucose | 13.5 g | 22 g ▲ 1.6× |
Per litre, at label strength. ORS is WHO reduced-osmolarity oral rehydration solution — the rehydration benchmark, not a sports drink. ×N is this SKU as a multiple of the ORS figure beside it.
Zone fit is worked out from the label, not written for this product. The cut-offs (60 min, 2 h, 500 mg) are ours, not from a study. Not medical advice.

Label gap
“8 vitamins and minerals” is on the front; the panel names none of them
The pack advertises 8 vitamins and minerals, but the ingredient list gives only “Vitamins” as a single word — no compound, no amount. The minerals it does declare (sodium, potassium, chloride) are the only ones you can hold to a number.
Ingredients
What is in the stick
Eleven ingredients, read by the job each one does. The list was transcribed from the Lemon Lime pack — the ingredient panel is in the photo alongside.
| Job | On the pack | Note |
|---|---|---|
| ElectrolytesNa · K · Cl | Sodium chloride · Potassium citrate · Trisodium citrate · Potassium dibasic phosphate Panel declares Na · K · Cl of the five electrolytes; magnesium and calcium are not on the panel. | Sodium comes from salt and the citrate; potassium from citrate and phosphate. Citrate doubles as the acidity buffer. 685 mg chloride, all from the salt. |
| Carbs (sugar)the co-transport driver | Sugar · Dextrose | 11 g added sugar, the first two ingredients by weight — roughly ⅔ of the 16.4 g stick. This is glucose to pull sodium and water across the gut, not fuel: 65 kcal a serving. Why sugar helps a drink absorb → |
| Sweetener | Steviol glycosides INS 960 | Added on top of the sugar for sweetness without more calories. No-stevia electrolytes → |
| Extrasvitamins · allergen | Vitamins unnamed on the panel Contains soy — declared allergen. | The panel lists “Vitamins” as one word with no compound or amount. Soy is the only named allergen. |
| Taste & processing | Citric acid INS 330 · Natural flavours · Silicon dioxide INS 551 | Citric acid is the tartness (and buffers with the citrate). “Natural flavours” is unspecified. Silicon dioxide keeps the powder free-flowing. |
Transcribed from the Lemon Lime stick, 21 Aug 2026, in pack order within each job. Additives are INS-coded ingredients other than the electrolyte salts and sugars.

Report
Every number on this page is a label claim
Liquid I.V. (Hindustan Unilever, for the India SKU) publishes no third-party lab report for this product. Nothing above — the 572 mg sodium, the 11 g sugar, the 388 mg potassium — has been checked against an independent assay. We transcribe the panel and date it; we cannot confirm it.
Lab reports
No independent lab reports
Some brands publish the third-party assays behind their label. This one does not, so the label is the only source these figures have.
What that means for the numbers above
- •The label is un-audited: FSSAI requires the panel to be accurate, but no batch has been posted for anyone to read against it.
- –No batch-to-batch record: without published reports there is no way to see how far a stick drifts from the printed 572 mg.
“No reports” is not an accusation of a bad label — it means the label has not been shown to be a good one. It is the common case: 45 of the 50 India products we track publish nothing.
Brands that do publish independent assays: The Func. Lab (50 files) and Unived (per-batch COAs). If verified numbers matter to you, start there. Read 21 Aug 2026.

Heavy metals
No heavy-metal or banned-substance data
Two things a lab report would cover that the label never claims: contaminant metals in the powder, and a banned-substance screen. Neither is published for this product.
Heavy metals
- –No screen shown: the FSSR 2011 limits (lead 2.5, arsenic 1.1, cadmium 1.5, mercury 1.0 mg/kg) apply to this powder, but no batch has been tested against them in public.
- –Banned substances: no WADA-list or BSCG screen — relevant only to tested athletes, and absent here.
Who makes it — and which other brands share the plant — is in Who makes it below. A shared manufacturer is a sourcing fact, not a purity test.
For products with published heavy-metal screens, see The Func. Lab and Unived.

Brand-site prices read from liquid-iv.co.in, amazon price from the listing, all 21 Aug 2026 — treat the date as part of the number. ‡ ₹ / serving is computed by losses from the price and the label's 572 mg; the 16-stick minis are a lighter stick, so they carry no comparable per-serving figure. The amazon.in link may earn a commission; the price you pay is the same.
Hindustan Unilever sells it; Tirupati Lifesciences makes it — two different companies, and the maker also makes two other brands on this page.
Who makes it
Who makes it
The brand on the front is rarely the factory. Two companies sit behind this stick, and the one that makes it makes other electrolyte brands too.
The two companies on the pack
- •Marketed by Hindustan Unilever Ltd (Mumbai), FSSAI 10013022001897 — the India brand owner. Liquid I.V. is a US brand HUL sells here.
- •Made by Tirupati Lifesciences Pvt Ltd — manufacturing licence 10012062000165. Nahan Road, Paonta Sahib, Dist Sirmaur (HP) 173025. “Made in India” on the pack.
Same plant, other brands. Licence 10012062000165 also makes Wellbeing Nutrition Hydrasalt and Briyo H2Lyte — three electrolyte brands off one line. A shared manufacturer is a sourcing fact, not a quality verdict.
Marketer and manufacturer read from the pack back panel, 21 Aug 2026. Shared-plant links are products in our database that carry the same FSSAI manufacturing licence.
Every number here is a label fact, transcribed and dated — no health claims. Each section above ends in its own fine print; this is the master list.
