E-DRUG: What to do about zinc deficiency? (2)
---------------------------------------------
Dear Roger,
We know about efficacy of zinc supplements in acute and persistent diarrhoea, however we don't know which zinc salt (gluconate, acetate and sulphate) is the recommended, but the WHO does not specify the kind of salt. Can you help we answer this doubt?
