Hi, it is difficult to fully understand your question. Pedialye should be adminstered orally because the way that you are doing is just causing troubles to last tract of the intestine but it would not necessarily be absorbed. Can King be seen any sooner ? Ideally he should be put on a drip to correct his dehydration. Hope this helps.
