The article presents modern approaches to rational pathogenetic therapy of intestinal infections in children based on existing national and international protocols for the treatment of infectious diarrhea. Approaches to carrying out oral rehydration using solutions with reduced osmolarity are described in detail. The use of solutions with osmolarity 225–240 mOsm/l allows reduction of the diarrhea duration and contributes to improvement of outcomes.
