It depends on the flow of the fluid into the body and the gauge of the line which is carrying the fluid. It can take anywhere from 1 L/hr to 1 L/many hours. It depends on what is advised by the nurse or doctor. Generally, intravenous re-hydration is done repeatedly over time, versus just done once. Plus, having those fluids being continuously infused into the body allows the ability to inject medications as needed. This depends on the extent of the dehydration before the therapy started.
