ORS solution contains too much salt and too little potassium for children with SEVERE MALNUTRITION. Mix an ORS packet with 2 litres of water (instead of 1 litre of water). Then add 50 g of sugar (or 10 level teaspoons) and 45 ml of potassium chloride solution.3 Mix carefully. Rehydrate more slowly than normal. Monitor the child carefully. ................
