Australian Mums - Help with salt powder questions please!

[Guest guest]

I spoke with a pharmacist yesterday who didn't know what salt powder was, but

was able to find some and order it. The pharmacy called me today and verified

that it was in and that I didn't need a perscription to pick it up. When I

asked what the bottle said they told me " equal parts of sodium chloride and

sodium bicarbonate " , " mix 2tsp. in 1 quart water for irrigation or use as

directed by a physician " . Is this the same as your salt powder? I know one of

you said that your pharmacy made their own. If your bottle doesn't say what

specifically it's made of, would you call and ask them? I haven't picked it up

yet, so I don't know how it tastes. I don't want to give it to Leila until I'm

sure the sodium bicarbonate part is right. Thank you very much for your help!!

P.S. Is salt powder dosed the same as regular table salt? And also, what's a

cordial? The only cordials I'm familiar with are cherry cordials (as in the

the chocolate covered cherries - my personal fav )
