You must replace them by drinking fluids that contain electrolytes. Water does not contain electrolytes.Common electrolytes include:CalciumChlorideMagnesiumPhosphorusPotassiumSodiumElectrolytes can be acids, bases, or salts. They can be measured by different blood tests. Each electrolyte can be measured separately, such as:Ionized calciumSerum calciumSerum chlorideSerum magnesiumSerum phosphorusSerum potassiumSerum sodiumNote: Serum is the part of blood that doesn't contain cells.Sodium, potassium, chloride, and calcium levels can also be measured as part of a basic metabolic panel. A more complete test, called comprehensive metabolic panel, can test for these and several more chemicals.The electrolytes - urine test measures electrolytes in urine. It tests the levels of calcium, chloride, potassium, sodium, and other electrolytes.
