You can cure the cholera by heavy infusion of the intravenous fluids. You may have to put two infusion lines with large bore needle or intracath or vasofix. You have to give ringer lactate solution with added potassium chloride in the bottle. Direct potassium chloride will kill the patient in no time. Give the fluid ruthlessly. You may give four liters of fluid in first hour only. You have to keep the heart rate to about 100 per minute and systolic blood pressure at about 100 mm of Hg. The fluid should be warmed to body temperature. Total non-touch technique has to be used to maintain the aseptic transfusion unit. Patient will not complain of thirst due to loss of isotonic fluid. But then his routine need of water is to be satisfied by giving him 10 % dextrose solution two to three litres per day. You can give him one ampule of multivitamin per day in dextrose solution. Once vomiting is controlled, you can give him oral re-hydration solution to save I. V. fluids. With proper and confident treatment the patient will not die. You may have to give up to 30 litres of fluids in say two days, apart from oral re-hydration fluids. You can give him injection oxytetracyline (Teramycin) twice a day for two to three days.

What date was the cure for cholera found?

There is no single "cure" for cholera, as it is primarily treated through rehydration and electrolyte replacement rather than a specific cure. However, significant advancements in understanding and treating cholera occurred in the 19th century, particularly with the work of individuals like John Snow, who traced an outbreak in London to contaminated water in 1854. The development of effective oral rehydration solutions in the 20th century has greatly reduced mortality rates associated with cholera.
