If he can take his fluid requirements orally then that's the best thing. NS drip is really not indicated. If his BP is not being maintained then the line of treatment will have to be reviewed.

Add papaya leaf juice 10 ml three times a day. If non diabetic add honey.
If fluctuations is much more u can go for platelet infusion.
