“…MDMA (3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine), a stimulant, is thought to be associated with hyponatremia because of increased diaphoresis, yielding sodium loss, and compensatory water intoxication. It is not a common side effect of MDMA use; however, Armitage et al [19] presented a case report of an 18-year-old woman who had a generalized tonic-clonic seizure in the setting of hyponatremia from MDMA intoxication. This woman's serum sodium was 121, notably close to what many would argue is severe hyponatremia.…”

Eating disorders, psychotic illnesses, and substance use disorders are some of the more common psychiatric conditions encountered in clinical practice that are associated with hyponatremia. The mechanisms that lead to hyponatremia vary, and at times hyponatremia may be a result of a drug side effect or drug-drug interaction. Additionally, hyponatremia from a non-psychiatric condition may lead to psychiatric symptomatology. Given the potential for hyponatremia to cause significant morbidity and potential mortality, clinicians are urged to consider screening for plasma sodium in patients at risk of hyponatremia, such as patients in the three categories of psychiatric conditions described above. Treatment of hyponatremia consists of various acute interventions, with consideration that treatment of the underlying psychiatric condition may help to diminish or eliminate the frequency of hyponatremic episodes in the long run.

Antidepressants are routinely used by General Practitioners (GP) as well as Psychiatrists to treat Depression. They are tolerated well.However,in certain patient populations,they are associated with SIADH (Syndrome of Inappropriate Anti- Diuretic Hormone Secretion) and Hyponatremia. Various research studies have shown that all antidepressants are associated with Hyponatremia. Hyponatremia as a side effect of antidepressant therapy is more commonly seen in old age,chronic Kidney disease and Hypothyroidism. In this article,the authors discuss in relation to Hyponatremia and psychiatric disorders.
