Overview
Medical Therapy
- Fluid restriction
- Intravenous saline
- Drugs
- Demeclocycline
- Conivaptan - an approved antagonist of both V1A and V2 vasopressin receptors. Its indications are "treatment of euvolemic hyponatremia (e.g. the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone, or in the setting of hypothyroidism, adrenal insufficiency, pulmonary disorders, etc.) in hospitalized patients."[1]
- Tolvaptan - an unapproved oral antagonist of the V2 vasopressin receptor. A randomized controlled trial showed conivaptan that can raise the serum sodium by 5 mmol/L. [2]
Care must be taken when correcting hyponatremia. A rapid rise in the sodium level may cause central pontine myelinolysis.[3]
