I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Older adults may be more susceptible to dehydration and electrolyte imbalances than younger adults. There are many reasons for this, including: the kidneys may lose some of their function with age. Older adults may take multiple medications, such as diuretics, that can change electrolyte levels. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.
