Vitamin A, at any dose, does not protect against measles and no parent should give to their child vitamin A in hopes of preventing measles. Vitamin A is a micronutrient, meaning very small amounts are all we need to stay healthy and we get those through a healthy diet and in recommended doses of over-the-counter multivitamin supplements. Larger doses of vitamin A given over prolonged periods are very dangerous and can lead to vomiting, blurry vision, headaches, and, when more severe, liver damage and coma.

It is recommended, that under a doctor's supervision, kids infected with measles be given vitamin A once a day for two days to reduce the severity of the illness. But that is a small amount in a medical setting. The only way to prevent measles is to get your child vaccinated with the MMR vaccine. Talk to your pediatrician with questions.

An electrolyte imbalance can happen when the amount of water in your body changes. The water you take in should equal the water you lose. If something upsets this balance, you may experience dehydration or overhydration.

Some of the more common reasons why you might have an imbalance of the water in your body include:
- Certain medicines
- Severe vomiting and/or diarrhea
- Heavy sweating
- Heart, liver or kidney problems
- Not drinking enough fluids, especially when doing intense exercise or when the weather is very hot
- Drinking too much water
