ABSTRACT
Treatment of diarrhoea by 75 patent and proprietary medicine-store vendors in Ilorin; was investigated; using a questionnaire. The study revealed that 66.7 percent of those selling the medicines at the stores; were employees and of these; 30 percent were primary school children. Questions were seldom asked by the storekeepers; or the employees about the diarrhoea; nor was the child with diarrhoea asked to be seen for evidence of dehydration. Knowledge about the efficacy of oral rehydration therapy was totally lacking among the respondents in the stores
