Journal ArticleDOI

Clinical practice guideline on diagnosis and treatment of hyponatraemia

TL;DR: The Clinical Practice Guideline on the diagnostic approach and treatment of hyponatraemia is developed as a joint venture of three societies representing specialists with a natural interest in hyponatonemia to obtain a common and holistic view.
Journal ArticleDOI

Non-peptide arginine-vasopressin antagonists: the vaptans

TL;DR: The vaptans are orally and intravenously active non-peptide vasopressin receptor antagonists that are in development and have shown initial positive results in the treatment of Raynaud's disease, dysmenorrhoea, and tocolysis.
Journal Article

Therapeutic recommendations for management of severe hyponatremia: current concepts on pathogenesis and prevention of neurologic complications.

TL;DR: Patients with hyponatremia are exposed to major neurological complications which potentially leads to subsequent neuropathological sequelae or death, and understanding of brain adaptative mechanisms to changes in osmolality largely contributes to explain these neurological events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Successful Long-Term Treatment of Hyponatremia in Syndrome of Inappropriate Antidiuretic Hormone Secretion with Satavaptan (SR121463B), an Orally Active Nonpeptide Vasopressin V2-Receptor Antagonist

TL;DR: The new oral vasopressin V(2)-receptor antagonist satavaptan adequately corrects mild or moderate hyponatremia in patients with SIADH and has a good safety profile.
Journal ArticleDOI

Efficacy and Tolerance of Urea Compared with Vaptans for Long-Term Treatment of Patients with SIADH

TL;DR: Urea has efficacy similar to that of vaptans for treatment of chronic SIADH, and tolerance is generally good for both agents.
