Stuff like rehydration salts, sports drinks, Gatorade and oral rehydration drinks to prevent dehydration in children who are ill have the extra sodium and minerals needed to help prevent dehydration. Sometimes hydration can be given outpatient to help prevent hospitalization when someone is not severely ill.

This may not be the most helpful "place" to post this question, so please move it if there's somewhere better.
My latest evaluation by my oncologist earlier today (following repeat scans yesterday to follow the progress of my pancreatic cancer) is that he is concerned that I will need placement of drains, as well as additional measures to keep me hydrated since I do have episodes of lightheadedness.
I've seen various recipes online for home-made oral rehydration solutions, some of which look as if my gut might tolerate them.
I do not have a good history with Gatorade, however, or with products that involve coconut water, or artificial sweeteners, particularly stevia.
Anyone else have positive experience with natural (preferably organic) ingredient oral rehydration solutions?
