How long does it take to rehydrate? Mild dehydration often improves within a day once the cause has stopped and lost fluid is replaced. You may feel better sooner; ongoing vomiting, diarrhea or heavy sweating can slow recovery.
Drinking starts the process, but easing thirst doesn't tell you exactly how much fluid you've replaced. The cause of the loss and your overall improvement are more useful guides.
