Should the person be not unconscious and is coherent and able to converse normally, give an energy drink, an electrolyte beverage or water that is slightly salted. If it is not available, cool water will have to do until one can be provided.
Do not attempt to provide anything with alcoholic content or caffeine, however, as the liquid can interfere and muddle the body's ability to maintain homeostasis, or temperature regulation with that inside and of the outside. Medicine is also disallowed, one that reduces body temperature, as it is not recommended in the least.
Cooling too quick could lead to shock, which is the inability of the blood to transfer oxygen to the body. This could lead to anxiety, clammy skin, rapid but weak pulse, fainting, and in serious cases, coma or even death. Heat exhaustion should immediately be brought to the attention of a trained doctor or physician.
After experiencing heat exhaustion, the affected person should consider resting for several hours, and must not engage in strenuous and heavy activities for at least a day or two to prevent exhausting your body. A recovering person should also replenish their liquid and salt stocks, ingesting electrolyte beverages formulated to balance and restore your body's electrolytes.
Keep cool, by wearing clothes suited for the occasion. Should you immediately feel discomfort over the heat, adjust and keep away from it. Do not ignore what your body is telling you. Ignorance usually leads to complications.
